I wonder if you have to be a painter yourself to appreciate it? I can appreciate the skill it took to paint it but I can't think of anywhere in my environment where I'd hang it because we don't paint. I would always pick a piece to live with that elicited a pleasing feeling, in any of a multitude of ways. This one doesn't get my brain or my heart going so much.
Sometimes group shows are themed in ways which might fit this piece to a T though. Plenty of painters have made works that are self referential regarding the media in one way or another. This would surely fit there.
