Favorite Work of Art

Cave paintings signed by a palm print .

In my opinion, Mel Brooks comically displayed this point hilariously in “ history of the world part1” ….

the birth of the artist was shortly followedby the inevitable afterbirth of the art critique .

Being an artist myself , this comical exchange struck me as a universal experience most artists endure in their early exploration of their talents .

What I find intriguing about cave paintings, they are completely unschooled, untrained artists , yet they captured information about their daily lives in the simple images quite well .

Snort!

Kierkegaard is just as brutal with literary critics!

What makes you say that?

An untrained artist has no formal training in a typical academic artschool or apprenticeship program.
