You're not alone. Still plenty left. I bought into the hype and got one - opened it, looked at it for about 60 seconds, wrapped it back up. I love that these 2 masters work together but frankly their end product(s) leave me unimpressed.bolk wrote:Can someone please explain why this print is so loved? I just don't get it. Not trying to put it down or anything, I'm just curious after reading all the praise in the process thread. I open to the possibility that there might be some history or something in the image that I'm blind to, that makes it so good, but as I see it now, it doesn't speak to me at all. It find it boring tbh.
Try to convert me!

I can appreciate the amount of work that has gone into it, but I can't see it amounted to much. For me the image is just not strong enough.GR8Dane wrote:19 screens.... hand cut rubylith... ahhhh forget it!!!!

Many would say the same about your winnie the poo gangster child art.bolk wrote:I can appreciate the amount of work that has gone into it, but I can't see it amounted to much.

Again, not trying to be the hater here, I was just curious what the deal was, so I asked. Art doesn't benefit from not being challenged, you know
I'm glad ya'll enjoy it! Drink it up

Sigh. Not trying to start a "my art is better than yours" argument here. I thought I made that clear, using more than 50 % of my post to explain just that, so that even the most thin-skinned fan boys wouldn't be offended.Codeblue wrote:Many would say the same about your winnie the poo gangster child art.
Appreciation for the pure talent and hard work involved in the collabs and the solo work from both definitely adds to the piece. Still, I just think it really goes back to the old 'different strokes for different folks' cliche. Plus, if you like or grew up skating, snowboarding; reading Transworld Skate, Thrasher, Bukowski; Pushead on the walls, livin' in the MW tradin' zines, getting busted in Elementary school for passin' around the DK 'Frankenchrist' vinyl insert... the 'style' appeals more. Not sure if that makes sense; don't wanna stereotype, but certain personalities like certain artists, or maybe just 'see' more than others in works from certain artists/styles/subjects...bolk wrote:Sigh.

I was curious about what attracted people to this piece, so I asked. Appreciation for art isn't always limited to a gut feeling, but often expands by understanding what it is about.
If you can't stand people asking questions about prints they obviously should love, then log off the forum.
