ES better get busy. I'll bet that would fetch a nice chunk of change under the CafePress Bonus Program.....

I don't know.... I'd pay full price or risk getting pounced on by that last minute bid from Colorado....

Well done, ES!
This exploration of another style is your best since you tried your hand at Klimt.

Hurray for BB feedback that will no doubt send this one high up the charts!
I was just telling Sprots last night that we needed more Sprots/ES avatars since there'd been so few this year. My muse was listening!

Not only was the artistic style captured well, but the thematic interpretation was perfect!
I mean, if there is
anything here on the Bored that would elicit such a scream, this is it.

Ha! As soon as I saw the number in the subject line I knew what this was about. I saw it on the news last night and I must say that the copy that sold is the worst of the bunch. Of course, it was the only one available so I guess people with more money that brains didn't have much a choice.
As they were doing a close up pan, my first thought was 'damn, 120 mill for something that looks like a 7 year old went nuts with the Crayolas'. I think I actually said it out loud. Oh well, nice work if you can get it......

It will not win. Munch was a hack and a bit of a hot mess. Well, now that I think about it.......

If I turn Erin loose with the Crayolas, I get princesses. She even made a book of princesses for her younger cousin!
The postage should be less than $119,922,500.00 I think...

Your interpretation of the Srceam was great. It is nice to see you trying alternative styles. Very creative.

Not that that's saying much, but I'll still add it to the "We have our countdown winner" file for this one....
Sprots will be so pleased that she has become the new Mona Lisa of the internet art world!

Sprots is not pleased at any of this. Sprots believes that the proliferation of Sprots avatars is the chief reason for the decline in posting totals.

This particular Sprots avatar has already ADDED about 25 posts to the Bored's total.....
The defense rests....

Good, because the prosecution has new evidence to present before summations.
