not a painting - not even sure it's "art"
'''Painting''', in its most basic form, can be defined as "the process, [[art]], or occupation of coating surfaces with paint for a utilitarian or artistic effect."<ref>''Painting''. The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language. Fourth Edition. (Houghton Mifflin Company; 2000).</ref> For some artists it is the act of applying colored substance to a surface or creating a picture with colored oils or pastels; consequently an artistic composition made by applying paints to a surface is also "a painting."
