Art Journal: "Young Life" by Bo Bartlett

3 Claims with supporting fact:s
1. The man is a hunter
-He is holding a hunting rifle
2. The boy does not aspire to be a hunter
-He is not in an attacking position
3. The painting is taken on the edge of a forest/mountain landscape.
-The reflection of the hupcaps shows a  bunch of shrub looking fixtures.

In "Young Life", the boy does not aspire to be a hunter. First of all, the man represents hunting because he has a rifle and hunter's clothing. Likewise, the boy is separated in the painting from the main with those items. Secondly, the boy is not holding a rifle or dangerous weapon. Lastly, the boy is in a defensive stance rather than an attacking position. These facts all help show that the boys is not interested in becoming a hunter.
