Occam's Razor

Acrylic on canvas board (11" x 14")

Occam's razor is a philosophical theory which states that the simplest explanation is most often the correct one. While many people adhere to this theory, I personally disagree.

I believe that if we were to always accept the most simple solution as the correct one, it would discourage people from being inquisitive, and it would be difficult to accept that there are so many things that we can never truly know.

This painting is just me making fun of said theory.
