Bobby Connor Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 Most popular painter ever... Can someone please explain to me the appeal of this drab, mundane shite? Is it a similar deal to One Direction? What a society of clueless fuds and without the excuse of only being 10! Link to comment
Guest Posted December 6, 2013 Share Posted December 6, 2013 The fact that Vettriano looks like shit and sounds like shit is irrelevant. The fact that his work is shit and that some like it is an indictment of our age. Link to comment
Bobby Connor Posted December 6, 2013 Author Share Posted December 6, 2013 He probably kens fine his paintings are boring Rocket. Therein lies the irony. Just managed to hit the most popular and inoffensive shade of grey. Link to comment

What a society of clueless fuds and without the excuse of only being 10! Got a sort of bland, sterile, exactness about them... look very 30s Art Deco. I suppose that's the kind of thing that might appeal to the NAZIs. Still, at least the guy can paint... If he couldn't then he'd be L.S. Lowry/ Link to comment

dervish Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 When I was at the Vatican, stood next to their only Da Vinci and watched most folk walk straight by it (ditto the bust which inspired the creator of the statue of david). They don't have big arrows saying what things are so easy enough to do. However anywhere else and you know fine because of the name they'd be like flys to shit. People like his stuff I don't not a big deal. If you want grade 'A' shite there are plenty other contenders for the worst. He just happens to be more popular. Link to comment

Ke1t Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 £1 million for that. The Beano would reject that standard of artistry. I've never understood the attraction... even on a technical level, 2 dimensional characters and backgrounds, poorly drawn, giant-footed human figures, and a sense of perspective that tends towards Leaning-Towers-O-Lowry. If you didn't know who had painted it, you'd probably guess it was someone's 8 year old kid had knocked it together in a hurry. I like Dali, though... total mentalist who was having a laugh. And you can't say fairer than that. Young Virgin Auto-sodomised By The Horns Of Her Own Chastity Link to comment
spamspamspam Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 My tasteless aunt used to have this shit dotted about her living room in Mastrick in the 80's. You know the sort, black shiny furniture with a white carpet and a black leather sofa. His art is simplistic which in this day and age is extremely useful as most with the sort of money to spunk on art are pretty simple as well. This is what happens when you give a bunch of talentless footballers and girls with big tits, thin waists and even thiner heads shit loads of cash for being decidedly average at what they do. They spunk it all on shite. Link to comment

He's kind of obsessed with Fife is rocket. Link to comment
Guest Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 Me no obsessed with Fife. Me just think that the natives from there, and greater weegieville are the most disgusting specimens within this fine country that wants to be independent. We're fighting against the cunts in Fife and the greater weeg who will not, no way, no how, whatever transpires between now and the election, just will not and can not vote Yes. Don't you find that interesting at least? The fact that we know already how these two cesspits of negativity will vote? As for Banks and Rankine, wankers. Adamson was a lightweight too and don't know enough about the other. Link to comment
baldrick_sheep Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Well im a fuly fledged yes and a fair amount of my fifer pals are also and in the scottish election only one seat (unfortunately mine) didnt vote in a nationalist. I think you have more issue with the borders and Dumfries and Galloway than us. Link to comment
Clydeside_Sheep Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 I like Vettriano. I think he gets a raw deal from critics. Link to comment
Ke1t Posted December 11, 2013 Share Posted December 11, 2013 I like Vettriano. I think he gets a raw deal from critics. Ach, they can't be that good. If they were worth any money the Vatican would be hoarding them away. Link to comment

The Vatican is hoarding them, the ones in public circulation are all fakes. Lets keep that between ourselves, though - capice? Link to comment
