Thanks Bucco- you said it. Unfortunately, this artist, who seems to be a nobody, figured out how to draw attention to his own mediocre work. He doesn't exist in the art world- but he is an illustrator.

Take a look at the quality of his "work" - 50's pulp interpretations- and see how mediocrity makes national headlines. Sadly, the "Art World" will suddenly value him as some avant garde genius, just like the jerk who put a crucifix in a "jar."
