Buy a thousand paintings, with um, numbers on them.
Posted by Cap in Miscellaneous |From 1 to 1,000. Price increase as the number of paintings sold increase.
Very neat concept. But um, yeah. Numbers. Check out the current prices.
Stuff like this is why I failed my art appreciation class.

Dang! Foiled again. Why Can’t I come up with these ideas?

you can always try Roman numerals? OneThousandRomans.com
hmm, doesn’t sound right.

Yeah I saw that. I could not figure out if it was actually those numbers or they painted those numbers in different styles.
Hmm, I could do 1000 weird pieces of art. If people buy this stuff they could handle mine.

With MY luck the painting would just be a painting of the number that is on top of it!

Things like this show only that there is a sucker born every minute.

Paint by numbers? The dude is a cunt. It’s got to take him, what, 5 minutes per “painting” he writes? This has no art value– no texture, style, nothing– just numbers.
“sucker born every minute.”
Oh so true!
