Shree:

Excellent and aged questions those.

I think that painting is a natural extension of our hands. First we drew in the sands, the soils.

Painting (and indeed all art) is an attempt at communicating a feeling without using words. Before there were words, there was art.

How can I share with you something that cannot be expressed in vocabulary that is important to me? How can I tell you how I felt when I saw the most perfect sunrise and I wish you were there, but weren't? Here then, in paint, is my physical expression of it for you.

The first paints may have been blood from a hunt. What better paint to use to show you how exciting the hunt was...the one you missed, Cave Wife.

Children paint with mud before they learn what art is. It is almost magic for them to represent some piece of the physical world around them in a medium that's transportable: they run back to us excited and shout, "LOOK!"

Humans are not the only creatures to create. Chimps and apes, once shown, paint, too. Elephants paint because it's fun for them. Same with a cat I knew once.

Ants paint all the time: they use pheremones as their paint and the language of their art is complex. Bees dance, dolphins sing, whales splash to express an idea. Many birds create wonderfully complicated nests: their ability to create something finer than the next bird insures a mate/art critic while continue the family line.

We adult humans create in more complex media...but underneath it there is still the wonder we can steal a piece of the para-physical world and run to our friends and shout:

hi thanks. you really solve my doubt 40 percentage.

thank you.
