re: #493 Gus 802
I also visited the New Mexico Museum of Art in Santa Fe. You know, I can paint and draw in my sleep (in mixed medium). That is, “I could have been a contender”. Still, art museums have the same effect on me. Too damn anal. There seems to be a correlation between anal retentiveness and the range between abstract art and realism. The more you head towards realism the less anal the art world becomes.
Where do HG Giger, Roger Dean, Robert Venosa, Salvador Dali fall on this continuum? :D
