Judy, I'm still puzzled at how these art critics can proclaim the works of Van Gogh to be artistic genius. From what I understand, when he painted his self-portrait, he was already insane. And, if he were alive today, he'd be astonished that his paintings are now valued in millions of dollars.

The best of them will probably end up in his presidential library for the public to see. In any case, if art collectors were to get hold of them, they'd be valued only as curiosities. They're hardly works of artistic genius. Salyavin, It all depends if he can sell these artworks for millions during his lifetime, and if the art collectors in the future would value them like those of Van Gough and Monet. But I would have to give him credit for expanding his creative talents after leading the US into expensive war campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> wrote : ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <jr_esq@...> wrote : George W.
