That's funny because, applied to poetry, it comes out the same. Many young poets imagine that they have the right to ignore the reader, and just write what they like.

I love Klee. In fact, there's a big Klee exhibition at MoMA in Manhattan that I have to haul my lazy ass off to see.

Thanks for reminding me!

I love the quote .. intelligent and a statement that everyone should think about for any project not just painting.

Oh yes, I like this painter
I like his soft colours and how he used geometrical shapes
He painted a so sweet life
