The Knight painting
This is a story about Boyhood. Every man on Earth, no matter how old he is now used to be a little boy. And he was playing all those boys’ games with no doubt that it was the real world. He used to be a soldier, a king, a survivor, a traveler, a hero, and so on. No 3d reality or the time machine is required. So the painting is about my boy, riding a white horse straight forward looking fearless to the eyes of the future.
