From China: The New "Dogs Playing Poker"?



I love it. I hate it. I love it. No, I hate it.

p.s. on the bright side chinaoilpaintingwholesale.com now has Mike Svob's available (handpainted) for $12. Serves him right though -- don't you think? ~~

That's crazy! It's not like they're happy making knock offs of historical A-listers like the Van Goghs, et al anymore . They're kicking at the middle markets too. Who's buying is the question? Probably the same poor sods who used to pony up a couple of hundred on the streets of Paris for "hand painted" Monet copy I suppose. Is it a threat or just a sincere form of flattery? ~m
