I just saw something on TV that made me wonder if we are all wasting our time and effort in trying to produce art.
It was an American man with a Jack Russel. The owner taped transfer paper of various colours onto a sheet of card and the dog attempted to scratch off the tape leaving claw marks on the card. This dog had its own private exhibition and PEOPLE WERE BUYING IT! One woman said it was the third she’d bought, as he was so expressive.
Maybe I ought to give my dogs a paintbrush or tie one to their tails and make them wag instead of spending hours painting.
So all those of you with scratched door frames or walls, get them framed! You may have valuable art. What about nose prints? I should frame my windows.
