    Maybe they’re not worth looking at? Nobody ever tells You to listen to another song by Spin Doctors.

      Now I want to know which of Two Princes or Little Miss Can’t Be Wrong you haven’t heard yet. The two-hit-wonder disrespect here is staggering, I say. Staggering!

      I can see why The Scream jumped out as unique with its surreal image, but in his 205 works he’s got a few that are decent paintings. Just not as eye catching. And I’m no expert, so maybe someone with knowledge of use of color or flow or whatever could say what level he was.

        Wasn’t because of the connection to Guernica and it’s bombing? Or am I confusing some paintings here?

            Inspiration of it, from the artist: “I was walking along the road with two friends – the sun went down – I felt a gust of melancholy – suddenly the sky turned a bloody red. I stopped, leaned against the railing, tired to death – as the flaming skies hung like blood and sword over the blue-black fjord and the city – my friends went on – I stood there trembling with anxiety – and I felt a vast infinite scream through nature.”

            It’s not the person who’s screaming, but nature itself - or at least that’s what they’re perceiving.
