****Wow. You could buy an awful lot of heroin with that kind of money.*****

And paint more repulsive stuff!!!

Art just ain't what it used to be. Cannot imagine daubing paint on a canvas, like that c#ap in school without being thrown out of class. Makes me think perhaps I'm Renoir;) LOL!!!

“Art just ain’t what it used to be.”

And that has been true for every point in art history.

I’m not saying that I would have paid $110 million for this piece, but the guy who bought it for $19,000 in 1984 sure is looking smart today.

There’s still good art out there. Here is a link to the Scholastic national art awards. I’ve filtered it for Ohio Portfolios that won a Silver Medal with Distinction...because my daughter Sakurako won one of them....take a look. Proud papa!
