Luann by Greg Evans and Karen Evans for May 15, 2016

Zébo sure is quite an artist, art appraiser, and art critic all at the same time.

Actually sometimes art is about advanced drawing skills, it’s called realism.

Luann, it might be time to visit your guidance counselor to see about next term’s classes. Maybe something other than art this time?

I’m sure everybody’s going to be “Gettin Wiggy Wit It” (♪)…..if Will Smith is to be believed…

Mr. Wiggy, meet Mr. Bob Barker.

Mr. Wiggy IS being neutered. While drawn.

If ever there was a more pompous, self-centered, pretentious … oh, I give up.

Now THIS made me laugh out loud. Beyond absurd!! LOL

@dedi

Couldn’t get the reply function to work right. It kept telling me I was replying to tristam shandy.

Your explanation of why the cat looks psychotic is great. I was just thinking that Zebo was trying to imitate Picasso…

“Artists’ Misconception”“Hot Tin Roof On A Cat”“Manx, For Nuthin’!”“Felix….Nothing More Than Felix….” (♪)“Felines!. Whoah, Whoah, Felines…. "(♪)“A Si-amese Of Relief”“Putting The Cat Back In The Bag”“Indecent Purr-posal”“Gettin’ Wiggy Wit’ It” (♬)“Meow Mixed Up”or “Poor Kitty”

message is……………………… poor mr. wifggy always suffered because Zebo forgot to open the patio door???

Why does the second picture remind me of the Ren & Stimpy cartoon?

Wow! Woody Woodpecker sure has changed!

This is your cat on catnip. Any questions?

I like Impressionism, I respect realism, but I have little use for the abstract (I never know if they’re just pulling my leg!)

.“…or perhaps Mr. Wiggy’s artist needs to be neutered.”...To understand the true essence of cat-ness we need to consult not an outsider but Garfield and/or Bill D. Cat (ack!).

My opinion is that all three students, Luann, Jocko, and Emo, are correct. Monsieur Zébo is a pompous fraud: an adequate draughtsman, a lousy artist, a poor teacher….

They have some stupid course at U’s these days. While visiting my daughter one day she told me she had to go to her bowling class.

“The only reason artists rejected realism is because photography stole their sandbox so they had to go find another one to play in.”.There is much truth there, although they always wanted to show more than just an image. They wanted it to mean something, which is why the artistry of comics has done so well.

That Zebo is insane and needs to be neutered. Also Mr. Wiggly hates him.

Mr Wiggy is fine. Zebo is insane. Look up Louis Wain.

Hoo Hum the 2nd drawing is more catlike than the first.

He’s a more gifted artist than himself?

And everyone misses the funny fact that the bald Zebo has a cat named Mr. WIggy!

I think it “Communicates” s “Before and After” representation that You just Strangled Your Cat, Professor Z-Bats.

Kids, You’ve just learned a VALUABLE Lesson here, today.

You Never, Ever, EVER, Trust ANYBODY that refers to themselves in “Parenthesis.”

Got THAT? GOOD!

No Somebody CALL the Cops….,

The message I got is that the painter has brain damage caused by drug use like Jim Ignatowski.

@Brdshtt That is sooooo great!

Dunno whose worse, her classmates or the prof.

A news article that relates:http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2016/05/11/477666576/70s-high-school-art-project-mistakenly-valued-at-50k-on-antiques-roadshow?

All excellent answers. I like the first drawing, though. I’m a " I calls ‘em as I sees ’em" person. Don’t understand impressionism. Or, most art, for that matter.

“Krazy Kat” is a “klassik”…

Spare time, ha, ha, ha!

No.

No, just a lucky strike after the difficult split she had.

Since Lu can do no wrong in Zebo’s class, she must be correct.

Lol! I think all 3 students got the right answer.

Puzz, I think therefore i artis marvelous!

I doubt that Zebo coukd cope:

All of the above?

Oh, and rhe 4th image in the second portfoliohttp://corinnegeertsen.com/artist-portfolio/portfolio-two/might prove great fun for whoever it was who spoke about Quill’s spouse and joey back home in the recent comments sections

The first is art. The second is trash.

Since Luann is supposed to have a fine singing voice, why isn’t she studying music and voice at Moony U., in addition to art? Lots of opportunities for comical situations there.

Science humor is so….sciency. :-P

The professor is spot on— the first picture contributes nothing that a photograph couldn’t capture better. The second is filled with emotion and interpretation. And yet, were I to buy one to display at home, I wouldn’t accept the second if it were given to me.

Three men were sentenced to be executed by guillotine; a priest, a Muslim, and an engineer.First was the priest and he asked that he face upwards so he could look at Heaven and his Creator. his wish was granted and the blade fell, but stopped 1/2 inch from his neck. the executioner said since the guillotine spared him, so was his life and he was allowed to leave.Next was the Muslim and he asked that he also be allowed to face upwards to look to Allah before his death. Again the guillotine stopped just short and his life was spared as well.The engineer was last and he too asked to face upwards given what happened with the first two. as he lay there, he looked up at the mechanism and said, “Aha, i see the problem!”.

Well…at least Zebo has excellent posture. But at least he is soliciting class participation (more than I can say for some narcissistic instructors!) …… Hey Greg, I beseech, cajole, blandish and wheedle you, please get Luann in a conversation with Emo guy! Think of the possibilities! Polar opposite lunacy beckons!

When is Zebo going to ask Luann if she wants to do yoga with him?

LOL! :)I’ll have to forward this one to a few musical buddies I know.

I’m sure, really sure, that the message is that all artists should be neutered, immediately.

That poor cat, having to live with that crazy guy.

“Zebo is the most ugly man I have ever seen.”.Only because you’ve never seen ME.

glad to see Luann back in art class. I think art and teaching art to kids will be her calling… I hope………. and now that Quill is out of the way, her mind can be occupied by other things.

Jay, hope your backs are fine after today’s labor! (We used good enough form that soreness was shortlived, and luck was on our sides.)

Oh what a crock. The only reason artists rejected realism is because photography stole their sandbox so they had to go find another one to play in.^^^^^^^^^^By your criteria musicians should never have played electric guitars

Back to brad and daytonas wedding planning tomorrow?

I know, and I have no problem with the surreal.

Hi tas, that is quill and luann. Quill is australian and luanns ex boyfriend. Luann is the protagonist of this tune. This is the eponymous luann for whuch the tune is named. Quill and luann broke up earlier this year

I wonder if jock is offended if he thinks zebo hates cats. Iirc jock has two or three cats of his own

I guess my sarcasm was a little too subtle ;-)

Thomas, i think Jock has three dogs. Remember the visual that added up to Three Dog Night? Luann’s contribution became a song title, but i forget which. If memory serves the visual puzzle was solved by Puzz, Jay, or Brd. Apologies if i am wrong about who came up w the solution. Ohhhh, was the song “One is the loneliest number?”

Spoiler: what NOT

Again, why do all three of these students have the same class with the same prof for a 2nd semester in a row? did they all fail it the first time?

Ha ha ha!
