Conversation

This short comic section is based on Mark Tansey's 1986 painting Conversation. The first image is my own imitation of that painting. The comic continues by stepping into the painting and listening in to the conversation as it takes place. Tansey's painting can be found in Arthur C. Danto's Mark Tansey: Visions and Revisions (82-83).
