Wyeth is Dead

Andrew Wyeth, the painter, is dead. He was 91. They say he died in his sleep, but I don't know if that's true. It might be. Anyway, he was admired by many and was very popular for a long time. He was also criticized my many art critics as a painter who couldn't paint or whose paintings lacked color. His most popular painting is Christina's World, shown at left. I have taken the liberty of adding some color. I know he won't mind.

Andrew Wyeth is not dead

Another adulterated painting. Owning Christina. The colors are nice. This one was done a long time ago. The question of whether it is fair and legitimate to work on top of someone else's work comes up, naturally. Picasso said good artists copy and great artists steal. I think he was joking. I'm sure he was.
