He certainly doesn't have the most original motive, but yes, he sounds like he qualifies. As for possibly loving his mother, since it's in no way confirmed, I think that strictly falls under personal interpretation. Without actual proof, that's all it really is; a vague and slight possibility. Maybe he just liked the painting itself.
