Not really because I am getting old, it WAS Friday the 13th and I am constantly getting exercise related injuries.)  The paintings are superficial and too pretty and as Mike pointed out, they are full of contrived rather than genuine emotions.  But they do have some nice areas.  <\/p>\n<p>And sometimes they work.<\/p>\n<p>For example, Nascar Thunder.  This painting works.  It&#8217;s over the top with the colors and the drawing is weak, but I like the subject matter. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/themovingcastle.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/nascar-thunder-1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/themovingcastle.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/nascar-thunder-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"nascar-thunder-1\" width=\"500\" height=\"330\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-906\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.themovingcastle.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/nascar-thunder-1.jpg 610w, https:\/\/www.themovingcastle.com\/journal\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/02\/nascar-thunder-1-300x198.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can get a copy of Nascar Thunder from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.thomaskinkade.com\/magi\/servlet\/com.asucon.ebiz.catalog.web.tk.CatalogServlet?catalogAction=Product&#038;productId=205669\">Thomas Kinkade&#8217;s<\/a> website for $795.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today we went to Best Buy.
