Why does Marcel paint? Simply because for him, there's just nothing better.

Art lasts. It does not fade. Amidst all the daily activities and accomplishments, artwork is something that will not be forgotten. It is a way to leave behind an imprint of one brief human existence - that, at least, is the idea. Art provides meaning.

And yet, Marcel's paintings are not a recording of his thoughts or emotions. He writes music and lyrics as Wordsworth wrote poetry: during a spontaneous overflow of powerful feelings. But his art takes too long to create to capture fleeting feelings, however powerful. Instead, Marcel's art is an experiment and an evolution. And he is looking for any type of reaction.
