Go Eric!

You know when you take old wallpaper off a wall and there is a history underneath and other wallpapers and paints showing through?  Well a painting that looks like that to me has sold for a record amount for a living artist... a staggering £21 million!
 
I like abstract art and this is just "OK" in my eyes, but it's really nothing special I think.  I don't understand how there could be so much excitement - but in a way, I quite like that.  Art is so subjective and the fact that somebody loves this artwork is fascinating in itself, even if I think it looks a bit ordinary.
 
Perhaps someone will pay crazy money for my attempts at art?
