Painting

Painting is the practice of applying paint to a medium as a means of creating a work of art, or as a means of enhancing the aesthetics of an existing object.

The USS Enterprise (NCC-1701)'s historian Marla McGivers enjoyed painting images of men she admired, such as Napoléon Bonaparte, Leif Ericson, Flavius, and Khan Noonien Singh. 

In 2366, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and a few fellow officers on the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D) held a painting class on the ship. Lieutenant Commander Data, however, criticized Picard's painting. 

There are many examples of painters in the UFP, and Starfleet. As a child, Jonathan Archer painted a model starship he built, as did a few members of the crew of the USS Voyager. Kathryn Janeway was one such member who would paint to relax as form of recreation. 

In 2369 the shapeshifter Odo imitated a painting of a Bajoran landscape and surprised the Tosk in a corridor. 

There have been many forms of paintings throughout the ages. Morn had an Earth painting of a matador in his quarters, which was destroyed when Nahsk smashed it over Quark's head. The key to Morn's locker was inside of it. This painting looked suspiciously similar to one Quark once tried to auction off, when Quark called it the inspiration for the flag of a colony on Mars.
