I like art that is actually defined by the work, and not the success of the artist in a field not related to art.

Re: My paintings!
I think I've figured out the secret on how to acquire original art for cheap:
1) Travel to 3rd world countries (sad, but true). 2) Purchase antique art by non-famous artists. Famous dead artists command high prices because people want their stuff, but there isn't any more being produced. It's also a piece of history. Living artists command high prices because the bastards need to eat. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] That being said, if you look through antique shops and at art auctions you can find some pretty decent stuff for not too bad a price. At art auctions people will often bid for an unimportant painting just to get the frame. If you know this, you could probably work something out with them. Just putting out some thoughts for the art-inclined, but poor poker players in the crowd. -Dave-.
