Mirror and Sink (Acrylic on Canvas Board)

(Value Village Art Gallery Favorite)

Why is it that the most amateurish of art is signed whereas the really good stuff, like this, so often isn’t?

I’m generalizing of course. 

But this painting, right here? It MOVES me. It is alive. It is organic. Organtic. Real. From the Gut. There is movement though nothing is in motion. There is emotion. This painting is a moment in time that we can all feel. Here before you right now is ART. The real deal, despite how understated it is without being affectedly, poseurishly, faux understated. 

All this going for it and…there is no…freaking…signature.

I want to know who painted this. And where their head was at, at the time. And if they are going to keep at it, painting-wise. 

Artist: paint more. The world needs you.
