Awesome!! All absolutely brilliant! ❤️ The second story one was the one I directed, along with an amazing and talented team. The artist Troy Fontaine (my uncle) is a terrific artist. Thank you cbc 👍🏼!

'Professor' had a great description of origins of Modern Art.

[@PixieBratski]

Lovely first story. This inventor sounds like he came out of a book or film. Love his life philosophy.

[@korag7431]

That last guy though. He had a powerful opinion.

I think beach comers and found object artists are related..:)

[@SpeedOfThought1111]

sure, "Voice Of Fire" is art, but it sure as hell ain't worth $1.8 million...that's the fucked up part that people don't agree with in the art world....who's coming up with these ridiculously high arbitrary values?
