Artist of the Year Award!
I guess itās good when art takes me out of my comfort zone.
I guessā¦
ā¦or at least āartist of the month.ā
Yahtzee!
I was more impressed by her blue periodā¦
Sheās done TV advertising as well?
ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww.
(I say)
Well, yeah. Weāre talking about Trump here.
Having had ill advised adventures as a teen, I know that painting with blood does not dry that red. It turns orange or brown from the iron oxidizing. Being FAAB, I know that menstrual fluid shares this property. So thatās either very fresh or not period blood.
It appears sheās selling prints of the original portrait. No mention what printing process she used (my guess is digital since sheās only charging $20 a pop) but she probably either photographed/scanned the original while it was still relatively fresh or tweaked the colors in Photoshop (or on the printing press if sheās doing handmade prints).
I was wondering about that myself. Would any spray-on sealant be sufficient to prevent oxidation for any length of time?
I somehow feel that making my usual āeats outā on this awful picture of Trump joke would be in poor taste.
Sadly, this is the least offensive and squicky thing Iāve seen about T.rump in recent weeks.
A publicity-stunt painting of a publicity stuntman.
isnāt it illegal to sell blood?
As only original is made of this material, shouldnāt the question be if it is legal to sell photographs of blood?
ā¦and why should it be illegal to sell a blood-painted whatever, anyway? Assuming it is exposed to air enough (or treated) to neutralize the eventual blood-borne pathogens?
was just a question, not saying it should be legal or not.
The article doesnāt specify if sheās selling a photo. It just says "āgoal is to auction it off and give the money to an organization that helps Mexican immigrants in the U.S.ā For me, āitā refers to the original.
where did you get that from? I canāt even see a source link or anything.
For some reason I assumed there will be reproductions for sale.
If it is about the original, I stay corrected.
Sheās selling prints on Etsy.
It would be kind of weird if she wasnāt selling reproductions considering she used her reproductive organs to make the thing.
