Moreno,

I can! I buy art that is clearly the work of a craftsman. I wouldn't dream
of wasting a penny (or cent) on so-called art that is the work of people who
simply throw a tin of paint all over a canvas and proclaim it is 'art'. Call
me oldfashioned if you like, even if I do manipulate my pictures in PS to
improve their 'artistic' qualities (unless I occasionally take the perfect
picture). Not bothered about the 'sweat equity', just the experience, skill,
and imagination combined.

Bob Frost.
