Ya coulda used a banana for that.

Sell tickets.

It is not all about the art, but it is all about how you sell it.

If you rope it off, they will come.

Give them just enough rope to hang themselves

Prehistorical NFT.

Sometimes, it’s all in the presentation.

BUT, they did beautiful art in the caves, go figure?

Sure beats modern abstract art……

This is exactly how art works – how else do you explain some of the paint spills that they sell for millions nowadays?

So much for art for art’s sake.

I didn’t know there was an Art in the comic. : )

Eh watches out for em steenky acteevists. They may throws soup all over yours masterpiece.

No one even CARED about the “Mona Lisa” until it was stolen back in the early 1900’s.

Most of the time you are dead when this happens!!!!

and you have to die before you get rich

Art hangs on the wall, but Matt comes to your door

Looks like a swastika to me.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And I will beholding my money.

Presentation is everything…

“Meet the artist”

He’s missing his monocle, beret and the cigarette with the extra long filter

The difference between art and random drawings is marketing.

I have byslexia … is that a swastika?

The little figure’s right foot mysteriously disappears after the second panel. Did Mr. Mastroianni just not notice he left it off on each subsequent panel?

It’s the presentation that counts: food, art, work,etc

He should be standing on one foot.

If you want to attract people you have to make them pay.

Free food after the exhibit!

Frame a toilet in a museum exhibit and it becomes high art.

It’s all in the presentation.

I just saw a story about the Mona Lisa. A couple hundred years ago, it was considered to be a not-very-good, ho-hum painting. It was stolen and not even missed for quite a long period of time. The thief couldn’t find a buyer and returned it. All the media hullabaloo is what turned it into the famous piece of artwork if is today.

“And of course, with the birth of the artist came the inevitable afterbirth – THE CRITIC.”

I was just thinking that comic strips are artwork. Cartoonists sell their work to any who will buy it. Just like any other product.

Some comic strips are very good. Some are bad or just meh. Same with other products. A good sales person can sell an inferior product while a far superior product languishes. So if a person can sell a banana nailed to the wall to people who will pay to see it, that’s just good sales ability.
