The Other Coast by Adrian Raeside for November 03, 2017

Jackson Pollock used to get a brush full of paint and fling it at the canvas. A real artist, that one.

I don’t know much about Art, but his dog seems quite gifted.

I don’t know anything about art, but I know what I like. And I like that dog.

Let’s hope the dog gets his cut of the profits.

To me an artist is someone who can paint something that is easily recognizable, be it landscapes, scenes or portraits. Splatters, shapes, lines, or anything like that just doesn’t make it as art to me. Any child could do that kind of painting and/or drawing. And how some so called art critics could make any kind of evaluation as to what the artist means by those kind of paintings, has me thinking they have no sense whatsoever.

Art is in the Eye of the Beholder, and I behold that ain’t Art. The dog is nice though.
