Hierarchy of Artists?
AKA
Ian Sands @ the National Gallery of Art

As it turns out, some of my art was seen at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC last week. That same art is now on display right across the street at the Hirshorn Museum. Here are some photos...



Highlighter Fox right next to Pollock.



Highlighter Fox right next to Lichtenstein.



Highlighter Fox in front of Ady Warhol because... it was just easier.



Highlighter Fox next to the guy I'm always trying to get my lines to look more like.. Kline.



Highlighter Fox next to Victorine Meurent as painted by Manet.



And then Highlighter Fox took his place among the other great art of the Hirshorn Sculpture Garden as part of the Wishing Tree.

Very clever, Ian. I loved seeing Roy's work, he was my teacher in college. You have a gift for freedom in all your work. I like Mr. Fox. See what wonders you can create with only some highlighters!
