Your Say

A mushy sentimental example of bad painting, just like the girl in the lavender dress painting. Pooh.

How anyone can call that bad painting is beyond my comprehension. Look at that, you can almost feel the softness of that girls skin. A person that can evoke such a thing is a true artist, rather than a shadow of a mimic, like what is so stylish these days.

My immediate response to this painting was "isn't it too bad we've given up loveliness in art?"

So, I side with the second commenter.

Its got nothing. Just goopy sentimentality. I bet G.V. knows it too.
