Episode 163: The Rational View of Art

An official from the Chamber of Commerce asks Terrastina to paint a picture for the town’s sister city in Japan. We’ll send your picture to them and they’ll send a picture by one of their artists here, explains the official. Both cities will display the donated pictures in their city halls. I didn’t know, says Terrastina, that we had a sister city. It’s been on the back burner for a while, says the official, but we’re getting the relationship active again. Can I paint whatever I want? asks Terrastina. Oh yeah, says the official. Of course, sure. Within reason.
