Even funnier is your self-critique yesterday where you confess you
find your "Today Was Pot Holder Day" poem "charming"... that pretty
much reveals all we need to know about your jealous complaints.

As I posted earlier, I am looking for some fine abstract art of: weeds
growing through cracks in the ashpalt, empty sheet music with rocks on
it, photos of computers with various junk around it, glass jars in
windows, pictures of ugly pool tables, pictures of empty rooms,
pictures of motels marked Red Carpet Inn, self portraits of people who
want to appear like Saint Paul, pictures of empty lots with sheds on
them. Can anyone help me find fine abstract art such as this, or
point me to an artist who may have creative pieces such as this? I
especially like photos. Thanks to anyone in the art world who could
help.

I think I might know just the artist for you... I'll look for the
link.

Where'd you see a canvas? Oh, you assumed... nevermind.

You might want to get into the media info a bit more, though, Will -
Apparently some of these bozos never saw the "... on board" part at
the art school they went to - musta been up east somewhere folk can
afford luxuries like canvas and oils. ... Of course, one of the
things I learned while not taking Art class in High School is that
many famous works by painters are not on canvas at all. some of them
are even done using *oh-horrors-mrs-thruston-lovey-howell* "FOUND
MATERIALS"! Of course, you're probably wasting your time with this
crowd, they still haven't figured out that Art is not something that's
taught in a class - only Technique. And they seem further incapable
of distinguishing Technique from Art. .... *phaw*

Not so, GB - I have personal knowledge of the creation of those
works.

What you're describing more resembles the creation of that
$3,000,000,000 tarpaulin that Jackson Pollock's agent got hung over
the concourse in Hartsfield International - you could even see the
rectangular cuts where he had cut out several of his other "works".
Yeah, Pollock was a painter - a /house/ painter. He just found a way
to recycle the tarps he was using as drop cloths. Doh.

I sell you a lunch box for $200, it's Art. De facto. Even if the
lunch box isn't, the sale is.

Doesn't Will leave a bad taste in your mouth? Or do you use mouthwash after
you two are done?

And even more interesting to create, sometimes. In fact, the /creation/ of
Action Paintings is considered to be a form of "performance art".

Here's a few abstract paintings made by our friend George Sulzbach,
some really interesting stuff that I'm hoping to help him get online
and sell prints of soon:

Sulzbach is also the illustrator of the upcoming "Shadowville
Speedway" cd album.


Can't be much worse than that shithole pizza flyer you made awhile back.
