This is art? Seriously?

but if you take off your glasses and look at it upside down, it very slightly resembles a poorly drawn picture of London Bridge.

 

Really? Because when I look at it upside down it looks like a weiner without the dog.

I'm a big Pollack fan, even if some folks think it looks like he sneezed paint on canvas.

 

Art is in the eye of the beholder. Some folks like Dogs Playing Poker or black light Led Zep posters.

 

I will admit to having one of those.

I've got a black velvet Elvis. Now that's art.

There needs to be a King Thames version of the bible.

i'd always heard in Picasso's later years he'd go out to a restaurant or something and instead of paying for his bill, he'd quick scratch something on a napkin, sign it, and that'd be his payment. maybe this dog piece runs along those lines.

 

no doubt in his early years he wouldn't have gotten away with that stuff, but later on i'm sure people could care less what he drew but just wanted something with his name on it.

There's no true art beyond 1970s van art.

And I dig the picture, it's simple and clean. To each his own.

the question i would raise, is it a print? an oil painting? or a lithograph? is it available online? or through a local art gallery? I have found a lot of great art on sale at ebay. i mus t have this dog. I'll give you $435,000 for it.

 

Your 5 minute ms paint copy is nothing like the original. you sir, are a bad artist! a cheap imitator! the weiner dog in it's pure form - now that was art.

 

below is art in it's purist form found on my living room wall at home.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

O

 

 

 

it's a polar bear in a snow storm looking the other way with its tail up. the symbolism is so profound. i titled it Polar bear hole

 

have you ever seen the "white" painting hung at the Smithsonian National Art gallery in Wash DC ? it's a thing of pure beauty.

Today I saw a small shop that sells invisible fences for dogs, it said so on the sign. Then, below the sign, the changeable letter sign read "What fence?" I thought that was funny, and it has to do with dogs.

Sam, that is not the real story. You must be confused. the real story is that the cow had eaten so much grass, that he had to take a break. When he came back after relieving himself, he was saddened to find that the artist had left.

That's me

 

I'd say they look like he wore a blindfold and randomly threw paint at a wall and they sold for millions.

The "White Painting" was actually a cow in a grassy field. But the cow finished eating all the grass, so he left.

 

i always thought it was a polar bear in a blizzard.
