This is the reason I'm not an "artist".

I cannot intellectually deduce the compositional elements of emotion and thought....

IE: I can't make up enough flowery bullshit to describe some stupid ass painting to convince someone to pay a ridiculous amount for it.

How the fuck does that sell for $43 MILLION? Seriously, how the fuck can anyone feel that is worth that much money? How much of a con artist was the painter, or whoever started this piece's rise to ridiculous expense? 

Fuck painting. Fuck art. I'm going into the forest to take pretty pictures.
