Does Art have to say something?

I have been painting for the last 11 years. I like painting, I see things in my own way and I put what pleases me on the canvas. If it looks good to others then all the better.

Why the hell do people have to ask me what I mean by it? as if there is some deep mysterious reasoning to my work. There is'nt. Maybe after I am dead someone will look at my paintings and say, "What the artist was trying to say was ............"

Bollocks, all I am trying to say when I paint is "I enjoyed doing this, I hope you will buy it and enjoy it too"

There does not have to be a reason behind everything, lets just enjoy things for what they are not some made up hidden meaning.
