Eh, most of the paintings of his I've been so-so about, but that painting I like quite a bit. I have a bit of a fetish for artistic depictions of subjects outside the 'usual', especially fat persons, & most especially fat women . . . . . Portraying easy-to-see-as-pretty subjects prettily has been done so many bazillions of times before, it's dull & not terribly innovative or revolutionary. (Yep, I like art to push the boundaries, to be insurrectionist.) What's new & interesting to me is art that renders the 'ugly' beautiful . . . . For instance, Paris Hilton could have her portrait painted, even badly, & it would evoke desire in so many who saw it; to my mind 'twue' artistry would be to take some dumpy middle-aged housefrou & portray her in a way that both showed her inner beauty & produced that same feeling of desire in the observer as the cruddy portrait of Ms Hilton . . . . . [8D] . . . . Jus' to, ya know, pick an example near & dear to your heart, lol . ... . quote:
ORIGINAL: HatesParisHilton Yay Lucien! I've seen his standing self portrait "live"! I reccommend him to ALL aspiring art students!
