I think most painters would agree that there is a fine line between bad and good. You can be hating what you’re looking at and then make just the right move, one adjustment even, and the whole thing looks good. Not that this has anything to do with Juliana Furlong Williams‘ painting above. This is nothing but good. It was so nice to walk into RoCo last night see all those red dots. Juliana sold eight pieces at around $1000 each.

Its not just painters, it’s any visual art. There’s a time element in there too.
One day something looks great & finished, a month later it’s “I thought this was done???”
And I thought the painting you showed was one of the weaker ones- the blue elephant was great. And the sculpture grew on me the more I looked at it.
OK, I know I’m illiterart but I don’t get it. Is it a dog throwing up berries?
Paolo: It’s the fox experiencing the sour grapes. Wow! Powerful painting. Looks like I’m going to have to get over to Roco and see the rest.
Sorry. I really wasn’t familiar with the fable so I looked it up. NOW I understand why the image is so powerful!
