Les Abstract Miserables - A Little Drabble Do ya

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

I am underwhelmed.

At what?  What are you talking about now?

Look at that painting.  Even in the best tradition of abstract art, this is nothing more than ... it’s a mess.

I wonder who painted it?

I do not intend to inquire, it is obviously the work of a self-indulgent individual with delusions of talent.

Gee whiz, Illya, that’s a little harsh.

I have a particular distaste for pretentious works such as this.  The idea that someone would display this and actually assume that...

May I help you?

Uh, no... thank you.  My friend was just admiring the art.

It's splashes of paint, and you really can't see it that well on-line. Art needs to be observed at different distances, and by the post we don't know how big or small it actually is.

Think about this and then consider a Jackson Pollack 'painting'....




Yikes...

PS this is quite a large painting btw.
