I'm very curious too. Looking at the image i'd interpret it as nothing more than saying the artist is going to keep painting right up until the moment death takes him (even making death wait in this case). I don't see anything mean about it. But then again I also don't get the "hate list" comment. Is that supposed to be the thing in the corner of the painting? If so I can't read it. We need to find the title of the painting. I think it is an old Juxtapoz ( I will look after work). If I remember correctly, it is titled as a Williams painting of old with the 3 separate titles. The titles makes it perfectly clear this is no ode to a genius but an attack, imho.

Can't say I am to big of A SHAG fan,especially after he that mean spirited jab at Robert Williams. Whats up with that?! What did he say? SHAG seemed like a nice dude when I talked to him. I can't post the image (still working that out, tried below) but he did this really mean painting of Williams as an old coot with a hate list as Death taps his finger behind Williams as an invalid in a wheel chair. All this in the show that Williams himself instigated and got Shag in in the first place. That dropped him off my radar... www.sourharvest.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/DSCN4745-Medium.JPG[/img]

Leavitt's work just puts a smile on my face. His art army pieces really have to be seen in person. It will be very interesting to see how his work sells in NY this month. I read recently that he is working on more wood carving pieces, like his large Warhol and Ryden. They were very impressive in person, but, understandably, much more expensive than his other art army pieces. We commissioned him to do our wedding cake topper and it was absolutely incredible. We are planning on doing the cake topper too. Glad he did a good job!
