This specific picture I took was from a part in one of my favorite books called Boy meets Boy. In the part that this picture refers too, Paul and Noah are painting. But they are not painting anything specifically, they are closing their eyes, while listening to music, painting what they feel. I like that specific chapter that they do this because painting what you feel is like being able to let your thoughts flow freely. In this case they flow upon a paper, or wall in which you are painting upon, but its the fact of feeling free, and letting go, and listening to your body and mind and expressing it through paint and colors blindly.
In the book Paul is the narrator,
a high school sophomore who is gay. He has known he was gay since kindergarten and is happy about it, as are his parents and friends. His friends turn to him for comfort whenever they are "freaking out". Noah on the other hand is a newcomer in town. There is a spark of attraction between him and Paul from their first meeting, but his last relationship went badly and he is wary of being hurt again. He is interested in photography and painting.
