the fake, the thief, the copycat

You see, most artists are great thieves, better than that at copycatting, and without a doubt the best fakes.  But sadly, some are not so good at these things.  These we call crummy artists, fakes, amateurs, idiots or best of all, Sunday painters...

They have nothing to add, nothing to say, nothing to give, no way to inspire, they are simply sentimentalists, and you should stay away from them.  Thisis a new guide, a set of guidelines, a set of rules to follow that should help you avoid them at all costs.

The first thing to ask yourself is, will this appreciate, will I make money if I purchase it?  Following that one rule will save you from ever wasting your money on some cheap piece of shit.

The next rule is are there well dressed monied individuals at this show?  Is it being written about, is it in the newspaper or on the internet or something?  ...I mean is there anybody you feel you should recognize there?

And is the artist young and vibrant, you know like you expect them to be?  Or do you see the artist in a serious conversation with collectors of art?  You know, like handsome wealthy men and women?

Is anything he has ever made in a museum or something, someplace where you can go see it?  Does anybody know who this fool is?  Well if you answered or even thought of an answer, even if you haven't, even if none of these guidelines mean a thing to you, get out of there, stay away from him, don't waste your money.

I hope this a helpful to you.  He is nobody, just a fake, a pretend "artist".  A Sunday painter.

Oh yeah, and does he make cool stuff that looks like anything?  Can he draw?  Can he paint?  He is quite simply an idiot.  Stay away.  He means nothin to nobody.  Not me. Not you. No one.
