Currently into other Art but a few years ago I was a big Takashi Murakami fan, I even have 5 Murakami Art tattoos on my arm.

Yet, this one is my all time favourite.

Zao Wou Ki just passed away, here is my favorite painting of his a watercolor that was one of his final paintings...



to me he is on the same plane as Pollock, de Kooning & Rothko among those who emerged in that generation...

Found this exhibit amusing, entertaining, and surprisingly poignant.
Wasn't sure where to add it, figured here made the most sense.

I bought this piece from a local artist called Nathalie de Chollet a while ago, love it, and love her work in general !

Really liked this one because of the industry in which I work :)

(apologies for the poor quality of my image, was taken a while ago and not in the best conditions :D )

Pity it exploded.

...I genuinely liked the piece and am content to define it as a "brainexplode", if you can bear such a term being ascribed to art.

Haha, ok, you've proven you weren't the hollow twit I initially pegged you to be. Sometimes, words go misinterpreted on the internet (imagine that). Luckily, gifs save lives. And yours
was perfect.

Sincere apologies.
