Losing True Art…
My soul truly dies when I see these types of things. Sorry, I must blog my sadness. Below is an email I received and now it is trashed. Art comes from the soul not a sweatshop!!!
Dear friend

Ah…so now we have factories in China to mass produce art; and it sells well in USA…wow. The originals be damned…lets start producing prints and sell them from corner book stores…or the Railway platforms. There’s money to be made.
By the way, I am impressed with the works of Ron Lucas.
“Economical Quality , Medium Quality and High Quality oil paintings”!?!?!
Let’s see…
“I’ll have 2 medium quality paintings and one economical.
To go, please”.
