Answer:
“The painter's face curdled with scorn "You think I'm proud of this daub?" he said. "You think this is my idea of what life looks like?"
"What's your idea of what life looks like?" said the orderly.
The painter gestured at a foul drop cloth. "There's a good picture of it," he said. "Frame that, and you'll have a picture a d*** sight more honest than this one.”
