    Bill,
    That's a great image. Initially, it had an Andrew Wyeth feel but comparing styles this is a bit more painterly. But, the feelings it evokes are similar. Kind of an miasma with undertones of desperation, closeness but alienation at the same time, particularly in the figures flanking the player.

    That's a cool print. I have a feeling she's not playing "Keep on the Sunny Side"

    Lucien Freud is an amazing artist and he certainly knows how to elicit an emotional response, but I get depressed after looking at his work for more than a painting or two. Some of my painter friends who do figurative work think he's the greatest contemporary painter going. I guess with his canvases going for upwards of $33 million, a lot of folks agree.

    - is rhonda vincent playing without a pick?

    - (insensitive, gut-ist, anti-violinist-ist inquiry removed by poster.)

    Lets try and maintain some class. Remember, post as if whom you're posting about is in the room.

    This really isn't called for. Let's keep it tasteful, I'd hate to see a thread that has been running for years shut down because of some insensitive remarks.

    Added: Sorry Jamie, I missed your post.
