Whatever! You're the one with the Nan Goldin homage.

Don't hold your breath for a counter on the review. This isn't a very popular thread. (But to anyone reading this, it's a party! Join in! SPRING BREAK 2007, WOOOOO!)

And if it helps, I can show you the prints. Also, they're all on Matt Fibre paper.

As they should be.

Well, that's true. But don't think I don't have a big enough ego to give it its own thread.

Most of my images of myself are much less phallic. As can be seen here:

Sorry, that's fetal, not feminine. Do I have to quote myself from earlier in this thread that viewers always know more about the work than the artist does? Stand down, bitch.

I didn't say feminine, I said not masculine.

What's interesting though, is I seem to keep getting more and more process-heavy. Like a Pollock thing.

A valiant effort. I smiled.

I'm currently hating Pollock. Too aware of the edge of the canvas. White Elephant art.

I'm really not all that fond of him. But I like Miro and the other action painters better.

One of my favorite photographers on MM. And possibly one of the more unappreciated ones.

This might be OT but who is the painter who did a painting of a big red dot , I believe on plain white canvas, that sold for 1-2 million?

Japan?

Well then, Emperor Hirohito must've been very upset, because that's just a picture of the flag of Japan.

I wonder how much I can sell my Libyan flag for?

This is my homage to Miro:

I love this.  But, I would like you to do a further analysis on why YOU like it and why you consider this to be a "real" diptych.

I want to know what "Gallery Wall" this would be on?

True story: We have the flag of Bhutan hanging outside the house.

And I only love the NY School, and the Hudson River Valley School. And on gooddays, the Socratic school.

There would be no NY School if there wasn't BMC.

Hello! Robert Motherwell, Mark Rothko, Jackson Pollack (who, as I said, I'm hating right now, but I can't deny his influence), Charles Olson, John Cage, Bea Huss, Cy Twombly, Anni Albers, Josef Albers, Robert Creeley, Willem de Kooning, Merce Cunningham, freaking Buckminster Fuller for crying out loud.

Who am I missing?

Helen Frankenthaler, and probably plenty others.

No, I was unaware of Kuykendal's work. A worthy addition, thank you.

I agree with your assertion, as well.
