The Twisted Every Which Way World of Art 6/13/2015 7:41:17 AM
A humorous look at the art world The art world can be a fun place to be, whether you’re looking for a good laugh or only to hang out with people who think that they’re better than you when in reality they’re just sillier.
Ok, like dig it, artists are some strange cats, man!
Like the shit that some of those dudes paint and hang in museums is just out there, you know, just way out there. Man, I swear, you can’t tell if you’re coming or going when you’re trying to connect with some of these pictures.
The most perfect examples of which I can think in the relatively modern era were embodied in the artist and the works that were Andy Warhol. I’m not going to make fun of Andy Warhol, because that’s impossible, which hits the nail right hard right on the head.
Art is sometimes as simple as a captured on canvas sunset, what you see with the naked untrained eye is what you get, but most so called great art from what I gather is all about the expression of thoughts and feelings and opinions in some sideways manner.
Some of the greatest masterpieces that I’ve seen have been scribbled on bathroom walls.
Art to be reckoned with poses a challenge worthy of taking on; that challenge not being what message that the artist was trying to convey, but what kinds of drugs that they were under the influence of when they saw those images spinning around within their minds and brought them to life.
Solve that riddle and make some serious starry eyed plans for the weekend to not see Monday morning.
Sometimes it really almost seems to my naked untrained eye like the line between masterpieces and the doodles of small children might be a little blurred, like maybe it just slammed a 12 pack or something.
Beyond painters and paintings, there are all kinds of people creating all kinds of wacky shit and calling it art.
Hell, some people dress up in costumes and play make-believe and call that art.
I’ve been known to pretend to give a f*** now and again. Is that art?
Maybe it is.
Maybe it is at that.
There are people who carve and people who design everything from you name it to everything else and people who pick on guitars and people who play with words.
OMG – I’m one of those people!
Oh, no, not one of those. . . . people!
Anymore every kid with a spray can or a cherry bomb is one of those people.
I don’t know where it ends.
I don’t think it does.
Oh, wait, and here we are. My bad!
The End
Parting shot: Art ain’t generally worth much until after the artist is dead and, wait, let me check, yep, just as I thought, I ain’t dead yet, so; if you have an iPhone, iPad, iPad touch, and/or Mac or some such device, here, have a free copy of my hot/cold blooded e-book WHAT’S IN A NAME?, which details a romance from hell.

Here are some people’s thoughts on this piece of. . . . Fiction/Literature/Horror. . . .
- A hard look at subject matter that’s hard to look at.
- Graphic sick violent sex and scandalous debauchery of the worst nature!
- It reads like a piece of pulp fiction and then it blows your mind.
- A bold read!
- WTF was that?!
