Crap lover? I love manet, monet, degas, delacroix etc etc. The last great realistic painters of our time were the french and that was 100 years ago.

It's only plebs who don't know art or art history who go wild for people like santos and the atelier club and suck their dicks when they are hardly relevant anymore. That painting is crap as another person pointed out.

If we had more people like pic related then the art world would be a better place. What the academia doesn't understand is that almost every great artist after the mid 19th century PUSHED painting past the limits of what was being done, hence people like ingres, courbet who are not similar in anyway to people like santos. Yet they're trying to take realism back to before it became actually inventive. It's embarrassing .
