"Meeting in the Sea"
Oil on canvas
Robert Morgan
What I Like About This: Beyond being a beautiful painting in my favorite genre of homoerotic romanticism, it's also the personification of a fantasy and a dream that can't come true... I've dreamed of being lean and attractive all my life and of meeting someone who'd become a beloved to me in just such a scene, even though I've never been in any body of water larger than a swimming pool. Nevertheless, here is one of my fantasies... I think that's one of the magical aspects of art, in a way, it can fulfill impossible dreams, at least for a moment.
