Vanity perhaps. Commercial? "Bull". No offer solicited.

dr. bill says, Commercial? "Bull". No offer solicited.
Dr. bill, did you read the durn page?
It shows artworks, several with prices listed (in four currencies, no less). Clicking on any of them gives an enlargement and a message like the following (emphasis added):

Year Created: 2001
Medium: Mixed Media
Width: 4 feet; Height: 3 feet
Theme: Nature
Edition Size: 0
Price: Contact Artist
Description: based on a Joseph Campbell quote. This painting is huge and makes an outstanding illuminated transparency.
Contact Don Hakman for more information, or if you would like to purchase this work of art.
-------
Does anyone find this offensive?

I goofed again. I didn't read all the way down. But like other spam, delete takes care of it. But there ought to be a way of lifting his privileges. Actually the pictures were lousy enough, I can't imagine anyone buying them. And I got an excuse for a couple posts. Now nobody will ask me about Mona's smile.Sob, sob.

I challenge anybody to convey all of the implications of "Mona Lisa" in a thousand words.
Paul Anka did it in 2 lines, wwh.
"Are you warm, are you real, Mona Lisa,
Or just a cold and lonely, lovely, work of art?"
Gives you chills, doesn't it?

I suspect she was smiling because she knew he had a problem with sexual indentification, and scorned him.

Thank you for your "honest opinion" of my paintings. I posted a few of my pictures on that free site and have no control over their commercial format. As for punishment, do as you deem necessary. What was once an outlet when upset, now seems too empty to pursue.

I regret my harshness. I am innocent of any qualifications as a critic.
