Re: The Whistler Gallery, NEW and Gluten Free
There's also the fact that a woman, even nude, can still retain some measure of modesty. A man must either be carefully posed or covered in some way, or the average viewer (and I am trying to sell these pictures, you know) becomes uncomfortable and looks away. After a while, this concern becomes tir...

Re: The Whistler Gallery, NEW and Gluten Free
And plenty of people with facts are still delusional. Stupidity is without prejudice, happy to embrace one and all.

Re: The Whistler Gallery, NEW and Gluten Free
I had a number of male nudes, but nobody seemed to care for them. It was very strange. From a purely artistic standpoint, the female form suits my style better because its beauty lies in its elegant, graceful lines. The male form is more sculptural. That’s why Michelangelo, being primarily a sculpto...

Re: The Whistler Gallery, NEW and Gluten Free
Well, somebody has the right priorities. Your admiration level is adequate. I am fiercely politically incorrect in the “social justice warrior” sense, which I see as shallow and self-serving. But sometimes I do feel the need to address serious subjects because...well, because I can. I have several H...

Re: The Whistler Gallery, NEW and Gluten Free
You know what’s missing here? An adequate level of admiration for ME.
I’m not saying that it’s all about me, but it is.

I am clearly not setting the world on fire.
It may be time for explicit nudity.

Re: The Whistler Gallery, NEW and Gluten Free
Landscape For the Little Tramp Tolkien called Hitler "the Little Tramp" in mockery of his Chaplinesque mustache. Perfect name, I think! Anyway, Hitler declared that anyone painting in a modern style (for example, painting a green sky with blue grass) ought to be sterilized. So I painted th...

Re: The Whistler Gallery, NEW and Gluten Free
Ah, thank you!
I have several more styles that will appear, sooner or later.
I would like to think that my versatility is evidence of awesome talent, but I fear that it's just multiple personality disorder.

View From the Bughouse
Thomas Hart Benton (who taught Jackson Pollock, oddly enough) described modern art as "bughouse painting."
