    Correct. Two different types of cache.

    If you way you fetch that list is through another query on the current
    context, then yes, you need to invalidate the query cache.

    You can't do that. But you can maintain your own List of paintings and
    add the new one to that. Remember that Cayenne does no in-memory
    evaluation of the query so it cannot know whether your new painting
    belongs in the list of (say) paintings starting with "A".

     From Andrus' previous reply, the fresh query against the db will read
    in all the relevant objects and replace them in the object cache. So
    effective the object cache is used for following relations, but not
    when performing a fresh query against the db.
