She Does Look Like She Demanded To Be Found! <br /> Generally ,I find paintings problematic.It can be hard sometimes to separate how we truly <i>feel</i> about a painting with how we <i>think</i> others expect us to react...! <br />In Art Galleries I often end up observing fellow visitors...trying to assess <i> their</i> reaction .We are all' exhibits 'i guess ..........<br />Saying that ,it may sometimes be interesting to look for wasnt in the picture.The pretty lady with cury hair for example.Who was she looking at when the photo was taken?Not the photographer (or us,the viewer) .She is looking towards some one/thing ,not visible, the the right of the camera....A mystery we will never solve.A bit like Life itself?tonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03746435400444226665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36955857.post-78532906744930660482016-05-02T23:30:30.117-07:002016-05-02T23:30:30.117-07:00I'll admit to never liking Warhol.

Oddly enough, many years after my Mom's friend did an oil painting copy of a small picture Mom had found in a dime store, I found an even larger print copy of the same picture at a yard sale.

I can see why you were drawn to that canvas; I would be too.

Firstly, because I’m a Barbara, and I’m glad this Barbara was rescued! I also love the photograph you found and envy you the joy of looking at her life. I love doing that!

I think your found art is much better than over priced gallery art. My neighbor is a professional artist and a few years ago she asked me to help her husband take some old paintings to the dump. They were quite large and attractive abstracts that had become slightly discolored from mildew while in storage. I let her husband chuck them into the landfill where a giant bulldozer crushed them. My friend often does this with artwork that in her eyes has flaws that makes it unsaleable. Mike Brubakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13065245846262417519noreply@blogger.com
