Sickle, did you influence my Art history teacher? NSFW!!!

[Poorbob]

Ok, well I took a test yesterday at about four because I missed the test two days ago. Anyway, I finish and find out I missed 2 out of 25, so then I'm informed I received the highest score in the class. This school is way to easy. Anyway, the teacher asks if me and this other guy there doing the same thing want extra credit. We say, "Sure." The extra credit turns out to be that we have to look at her screen printing art. I know nothing about screen printing, but I know that she's amazing at it. One of her prints had 144 colors in it and was sold to Anthony Keidis. Another one she's working on is being commissioned by the greatest artist in the world who's name I think had the initials of DH. Anyway, the reason I mentioned Sickle is because as we were walking through the art, she pulls out this print of an octopus and some asian chick. It was a print of some really complex asian artist painting. Anyway, it takes me like 15 seconds, but I realize that the octopus has one of it's tentacles in the chicks poon. I mean, WTF, am I in Sickle land here? She just showed us this weird art and talks about it like no big deal. So we're there for about a minute while I'm staring at an octopus fingering some chick. Nice. Exactly the uncomfortable position I want to be in. Anyway, just didn't know the octopus motif was all that prevalent.

God bless those lovely japanese chicks though!

Hokusai is one of the better known artists of the "Floating World" genre, although I don't think "Dream of the Fisherman's Wife" necessarily qualifies as floating world .. his most famous works are the 36 views of Mt Fuji, and you might recognise this one of them:

Damien Hirst? Fuck, is he the greatest artist in the world now?

Donovan H?

[Poorbob]

No, I don't think his name was Damien. If I had to try to remember with a gun pointed to my head, I'd say David/Daniel Huck-something or other.

Jesus Sickle, that is some crazy shit.

Was it David Hockney ? Not sure that tentacles and suchlike would be his thing...

My girlfriend is Japanese. We do, however, make a concerted effort to keep the octopi out of the bedroom.

[Poorbob]

Yeah, it was David Hockney. It wasn't a tentacle thing, but it was a work being commissioned by him. I guess he's good or something.

Dragonfly, that is really funny.

What do you guys mean? Of course there are Hockney tentacle references! Hrmpf!
