Tigger, I think OH wants you to distract Jopsy, while he gets hold of her curves.

:shock: :twisted: :roll:

Tigger, I believe that the Constabulary refer to that as "aiding and abetting". :shock:

Hmm,

Just to remind you 'real' art fans... let us not forget that impressionists were as much about the 'concept' as the finished article and were considered by most to be rubbish at the time. Tell Van Gogh or the like that their work was nice, and they'd have told you to stuff it up your fundamental orifice (nice phrase JB)...

Like most things there's good and bad modern art, just as there was good and bad pre-raph, impressionism, cubism etc. Only the good will stand the test of time...

I suppose this makes me an Art Snob? Well, maybe, but better than an inverted one.

Dear PH, star of Toy Story and Toy Story II, to mis-quote Jessica Rabbit, "You are not an Art Snob, you are just drawn that way." :twisted: :roll: :D

Hi all

I've seen Grocks work and it is fabulous. Really good and she should do more and exhibit them herself.

As for art, I like it or I don't. It's as simple as that. I like curves and textures and all different things. Like I say, if it floats my boat that's fine.
Lots of love

Lizzie
