"Art", like paintings and stuff...

Charlie

Found this today.  Didn't that painting come up for discussion at one time?

Are you sure it wasn't this one which sold for $21M in 2012?

I know art is personal but this is just a giant mel on canvas and anyone who then uses a pretentious phrase like juxtaposition of colours to describe it is a bigger mel

Paul

Do you mean this stuff as well..

Here's a couple of sketches I got from Rick Melton, all original artwork.

Those sketches are cool Paul.

As usual, Paul's stuff is great.

Regarding paintings, fuck Rothko. I'll stick with Venturi...

A bit of Cluade and...what the statue all about?

Charlie

The statue is a Degas dancer.  He made bunches of wax figurines this one was then cast and dressed including real hair...

Quite a fan of the Degas dancers but I never knew about the wax figures.  NICE!
