appears to think the art is in the quip.

"Orsen Wells w/Citizen Cain" fanged in his unlife:

Though Duckery tends to just **** on a post card and mail it to the
Smithsonian.

They asked to see if his **** was really inspired, and he merely replied,
"see for your self"
You must have asked too, you're own fault. Sour grapes and all that.

Orsen Wells w/Citizen Cain fanged:

So basically, you accidentally melted something with one of your
cigarettes, and decided to put the can of Raid under your sink to
something other than its intended purpose. In the meantime, you probably
vomited and after scraping away the top layer, in your delusional and
stupid mental state decided to call the rest "art."

Your an idiot "dorksen", if history has proven one thing
critics have only made life harder for poor artists before they die and
become famous, never improved the art with their own work or dialog...
like the fuzz on a radio chattering to the greatest song
it still ****es on the melody. save it for the commercial break
or get with the constructive criticism seeing as how you know so much

"we know"

logic, ever hear of it? That's a quote of a quote, idiot

About Dan Barfield Â*posted 2008-01-28 11:22:00 by Dan
snip
I grew up along the east coast between Savannah, Georgia and Jacksonville,
Florida, when that coast was still wild and undeveloped. School was a prison
for me, a thing to be endured only long enough to escape into the birdsong
silence and deep shadows of the woods and river swamps, or the sun washed
marshes and sea islands of the coast.

I've posted a new gallery of some of my recent abstract paintings, which
some of you may have an interest in checking out, for whichever reasons
you
prefer.

These paintings are made with a variety of materials from oil, watercolor
and pastel paints, to housepaint, solvents and melted plastics:

Comments and critique, as with all my work in all forms, is most welcome.

I especially like "Black and Blue Night."

Thanks for sharing.

As we have seen with Mockery's "paintings" even those who profess to
like
Pollock's work malign it with their misunderstanding of it. Will
appears
to think the art is in the dribble.

dmh

well, now-
what have we here?
houstman bringing it down to b's cat level
of altering the posters name.

(a tell tale sign that someone just got owned.)

Nahh, "Savageduck" appears to be a real nym. I checked his profile;
he's been posting under that nym for years.

*yeah-
well, i ducked that reply.

check out the "mockery."



Got it. I missed that on the first read.

Maybe Dale wants a new name for himself. I'll work on that. So far the
best I have is "Pale Hammesimitation", but that's a bit lengthy. I'll
try some recursions. 8)





see, i've got some luck.


*hoseman works for me.

heh

cool!

my dad just sent me a bunch of abstract art.

it's some of my favorite kind of art.

my dad paints on a regular basis.

Are any of your father's works online anywhere? I'd like to check those
out,
since abstract is by far my favorite form.

I hope to somedays get some of Sulzbach's work scanned and online, but
he's
such a hermit-type, living out in the wouds of Alabama, it'll be some
trick getting that done.

thanks for sharing.

(sharks bewa
i've got a new pair of teeth.)

This unsent post I just found in my "Drafts" section, from last year,
of
another old-time artist friend of mine, you might enjoy, as well:

Here are galleries of Barfield, my teacher, who has been highly
influenced
by Aborigine art and culture...

The Dream:

The Reality:
http://www.danbarfield.com/gallery2.php

my dad is very old and has never been interested
in sharing his art but with close friends and family.

we try to get him to go online like some of his
art friends. however, he really doesn't feel
like his work merits that kind of exposure.

i think it does. however, i'm far from an expert.

Hope you can convince him to put some out for the world, though.

that dan barfeild stuff is abstract.
however, my dads stuff is more like yours.
the barfield stuff is pretty and phantasmagorical
in an otherworldly kind of way. it kept taking
me to the astral plane. that's some of my
favorite stuff. people who paint like
that usually don't get much exposure.
that's what makes it "art."

i'm not big on discussing paints and techniques
but i love sharing ideas like you just did.
my dad just offloaded a few paintings on to
me as gifts. at some point, i'll scan them
onto a webpage dedicated to him. i really
don't know what's going to happen to all of
his stuff when he goes. he's got hundreds
laying around the house.

Barfield's art almost got me arrested a few years ago, a nosy peeping tom
thought I had "dead bodies" stashed in the backroom:

Columbus Ledger-Enquirer (GA)
July 13, 1997
Section: LOCAL
Edition: FIRST
Page: B1

HOW GROSS THY ART
Tim Chitwood

Apparently it was all just a big misunderstanding.

The misunderstanding led to a 911 call about a decomposing body in an old
house M***** S*****'s husband R****** owns at 2113 **th St. in Columbus.
That led to the discovery that it wasn't a body after all, but artwork
made
of barbed wire and blowtorched Barbie dolls. But it sure looked like a
body
to police. And it looked like a body to paramedics. And it definitely
looked
like a body to Danny W****.

Danny is a real estate agent who with M***** went to look at the house
July
2. He wanted to buy it and fix it up. It needs fixing up. The roof leaks
in
places and some of the floor's rotting. The S**** now live on F**** Drive
and use the **th Street house for storage. M*****'s son Will Dockery lets
friends -- artists, poets and madmen, Will says -- store their work there.

Among those artists is Dan Barfield, who has a concept piece called
"Vietnam,'' part of which the veteran made of melted Barbie dolls. ("He
hates Barbies,'' says his wife Judy.) It now lies on the floor among other
stuff stored in the dark, northwest bedroom of the ##th Street house. To
someone who didn't know what it was, it might look like a rib cage and
sternum atop decayed matter.

That's what it looked like to Danny W**** when he walked into that musty
room, first staring up at the rafters. Then he looked down. Then he froze.
Then he ran.

He wasn't sure what he saw. Maybe a body. Maybe it was sealed with wax,
which trapped the odor. Maybe this was a bizarre ritual. Maybe he didn't
want to know.

M***** followed Danny as he dashed outside, where he tried to make a call
on
his cell phone. She told him not to. According to her, she told him he'd
just seen some artwork. According to Danny, she never said that; she just
said they didn't need the police coming there.

This did not sound reassuring. Danny had to make that call. Now don't call
the police, M***** said again. She says she also told Danny her son Will
had
a bad temper, and he wouldn't like Danny calling the police.

She says Danny replied that the police wouldn't do anything to her; she
wasn't involved. That's true, she said (she wasn't involved in storing the
art), but the police needn't be bothered.

M***** claims Danny then offered her $13,000 for the house, then said it
needed so much work the most he could give her was $10,000.

Danny maintains all M***** did was tell him no one should call the police.

The next day, someone called the police.

About 10:30 a.m., police and paramedics rushed to the house, unboarded a
door to get in and examined what they, too, thought was a decaying body,
oddly odorless. Then they poked it and figured out it wasn't. It was such
a
weird story, the Ledger-Enquirer ran it on the front page July 4.

That's how M****** learned police had broken into the house. She was
perturbed. She blamed Danny.

Danny won't say he called police, but admits he told someone what he
thought
he saw. Stan Swiney of the 911 center says the call reportedly came from a
Billy Hanson. (No Billy Hanson listed in the Columbus telephone directory
was involved; I called.)

The 911 report said someone saw the alleged corpse through a window.
That's
difficult: The room's dark; the window's dirty; the art's hard to see.

The artist, Dan Barfield, says it's funny Danny W**** would be frightened,
because the real estate agent stopped by a few months ago when Dan was
moving art into the house, and this piece was out on the lawn at the time.
The artist claims the agent told him a decayed body was found in the house
once.

Danny says that's outrageous: He has never met Dan Barfield. "I would
remember that,'' he says.

Danny says he just wanted to buy the house to help clean up the
neighborhood, where he owns other property. ``As far as I'm concerned now,
they couldn't give it to me,'' he says.

Perhaps it will remain the house of scary art, where once people thought
they saw a dead body.

But didn't.

Barfield took off to live in Texas a year or so ago and I haven't heard a
word from him since... hope the old cuss is doing okay out there.
