My thoughts on art: I know what I like and I don't always know why I like it. I'll not pretend otherwise though. If everyone is raving about this or that it doesn't really matter to me. It will either elicit a response from me or it won't. Sometimes I dislike something so much that it garners my resect and I would say that this is also "good" art but just not something I'd hang on the wall. But it comes down to subjectivity. It's not a contest and anyone that thinks otherwise is a tool.
