Mary, you know you want to do it.

Having lived in new england for a little while I think it's freakin sweet!  The quality of the art work leaves one wanting....more.

Clearly you have zero skill for judging artistic skills.

There is a difference between being a fanatic and a team supporter. You appear to be the former as your ability to recognise Good work has eluded you.  :icon_mrgreen:

I actually have a a BA in communication design with a minor in art history from Kutztown University. (totally useless degrees I know)  And I never said it was good.  and you really don't know the whole story about the post.  It might be some kid looking to earn some extra money for the summer.  That could be his first piece.  If so I'm hoping that he gets better with practice and makes a name for himself.  Or it could be some hack looking for a quick buck to support his crack habit.  And even then he's bound to improve over time, I hope.

Peace out girl scout

Seriously? $100 for that. I don't care if you eventually become the next Vangogh that is awful I could probably do better. So, give me $150! I know my pic ain't perfect was actually highlighting my painting (If you'd like yours painted it's $99) but behold the mighty and beautiful Dolphin!

Say what you want. It still looks better than some of the paint jobs I have seen on these forums by some of the members here.

Obviously you people need to learn reading comprehension.

The ad states he can make a painting like that IN your bike. I don't care who you are, painting it in your bike is damn hard and easily worth $99.

Funny... years ago I knew a guy who had ZERO degrees, diplomas or any kind of certificates to do with art. But he created the most amazing stuff on his computer. He Thought he should go do a Course and get some kind of cert. But he had a falling out over artistic design with the course presenter and left.

He created a website devoted to a band. Did everything himself - all coding and Graphics. He was contacted by someone in a webdesign firm who found his site - also being a fan. Next thing you knew, he was living in another city earning over $100k a year to do graphic design work. This was an easy 15 years ago.

Not bad for someone without a Certificate or other piece of paper.

Yeah your right Mister some do great things without degrees look at Gates and the FB dude. No degree and has done amazing things in the computer world.
I don't think art can be "taught". It is a God given talent. I love the piano and how it sounds. Decided to take a class at VCC to learn. I learned 2 things from that class 1) you can't go at it like learning how to type 2) I will never be able to play the piano! It is the only class I ever had to drop due to my inability!
