to protect ones art
16 years ago
Ever want to say to a person in an art store "look you F___ing C__t"
I did a pastel for my mother a few years back of tuscany for mother days. She just now brought it in to be framed. The bitch at the store told her it cant be framed unless its sprayed with a finisher, so my mother calls me and i flew off the handle to be honest.
I tried a finisher on earlier pieces and HATED what it did to the colors and such. Hated so much that i threw the crap away. When i work on a piece i keep a can of air handy and continousley spray to remove excess dust. I have framed many pieces and have never had an issue with dust on the glass.
yet am hearing the bitch in the background of my mothers cell telling her that SHE is right. that if they frame it in according to the artists wishes that the glass will be covered in dust.
So i made an ultimatum to my mother if she puts a finisher on the piece i WILL destroy it to protect my work. This was a threat not coming from her son but from the artist she will force to look at the piece every day.
