mettelus Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 After seeing all the numerous threads over the years of people struggling to perfect tracks, gain audiences, etc., this news piece shows it exists everywhere. Anecdote first... when in high school I saw a portrait that a girl had done of an elderly man's face for a competition. It was so detailed that it looked like a photograph and even had the pores in his nose. What shocked me most was that it was done in watercolor. Amazing talent. To contrast this... news article from yesterday... "Mondrian painting could be auctioned for more than $50 million" Just makes me wonder how the folks who walk up to a wall with a crate of spray paint cans and do realistic murals feel when they see articles like this... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigb Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 I think you should buy two. Then you could put one upside down and balance out the overall look. Ya? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mettelus Posted October 8, 2022 Author Share Posted October 8, 2022 One of those articles said something about the "dominant red square" and all I could think of was the Frankenstrat. If only Eddie had put a tiny section of blue and yellow on it... then it might have been worth something ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
