[Graybeard58]

One of them — no doubt to be found in the presumed “red states” — is to say “who gives a flying flip?” Another is not to surrender to impressionism, and to do some work of one’s own.

I am in the first school of thought.

" Another is not to surrender to impressionism,..."

I would never "surrender" to impressionism, or post-impressionism, or even cubism or pre-war German expressionism. Give me N.C. Wyeth and Normal Rockwell anyday.
