Water has so many different "moods" I guess I'd have to see the particular painting.

Water? ...a washing away of all sins, lusts, and underworld endeavors, a symbolic cleansing best expressed in the biblical story of the Great Flood, where no power on earth could compete with the almighty commands of God the Father! But, then, sometimes, it just reminds me of needing to take a bath.

Depends on the context...some appeal more than others.

Welcome to FAA Linda. Overall I'd say water is life painting or otherwise.

Water reflects our state of mind . It can be serene & peaceful, or passionately turbulent.

Its rhythmic rocking often thought to be symbolic of the womb.
