to sum up the Turner Prize exhibition at Tate Britain…

I don't get it.

The four words I don't even want to elaborate, and I don't even want people to explain it to me.

So here I am elaborating; I believe these people believe they're artists, but I don't believe they're artisits. Art isn't meant to be about shoving a load of crap together and making up a story behind it. Dexter Dalwood has the right idea, someone has to win, so I hope it's him. I could see in some way where he was coming from. I wouldn't have approached in the same way myself but he knew the concept of what he was making before he made it (instead of making something then naming it randomly).

I had higher hopes the Cartoon museum (Little Russell Street, London) That was pretty standard. Some nice regonisable stuff, sonic the hedgehog, 2000AD, Asterix, V for Vendetta. Also a lot of humorous political stuff, "The world according to Dubya" was top class jokes.

No problem, I really like your style... a lot.
You ever thought about, or done any comic work?
The characters just look like they have so much potential.

Though that's easier said than done haha.

That's my next mission.
Gonna have a go even if it's a failure and doesn't get read. :D

Hello, how are you doing? Thank you for taking an interest in my work. I have though about doing comics, but I get bored doing the same thing over and over. I like coming up with characters and putting a story to them, like a concept artist. No matter what you do, you did something whether it's bad or good. Someone is going to like your work I promise. Good look on your quest. =)
