I think the true grate artists strive for the truth and nothing but the truth.

There are grate artists that tell the truth and there are grate artists that lye and are not grate but promotion has made them out to be grate lyer's. One can see this in their work.

An artist that strives for the truth will not compromise. Artists that lye will continue to spin their web. The world is fool of unsuspecting flays that rather land on.

Please excuse me for being so blunt but if a artist is not playing with a full deck and this is evident in the art then why is he/she so grate? Is it because one can draw a rectangle, a square and a cow and add color? Is that what categorizes an artist as grate?

If some weird looking figure seems like its holding another small weird looking figure, am I to think that is what a mother holding her maybe looks like? Which one of you would commission such a thing and admit these persons are related to you?

It is up to each one to decide which road one will travel. My brushes and I strive for the truth.
