#art #fake #artist He had spent years, studying the techniques of the old masters, and then, along came Cubism, Surrealism, and Modernism, and the art critics were besotted – the only person it seems, who wasn’t, was this slight man, with hawkish features, who made his own paintbrushes from badger hair, and mixed his own paints from pigments – he would have none of it! He also wouldn’t pay bribery money to the critics, so they could praise his art, they, in turn at best, ignored his efforts, or downright criticised his work. Revenge is a dish best served cold, and that’s exactly how he would serve it. And if he made an immense fortune in the process, why not? They would pay in more ways than one…. Oddie Beau's ODDNESS Urban exploration & famous historical features! vintage crime cases & eccentric people from the past! ...and other weird stuff :) ....a dusty store window, filled with ancient alluring oddities. Once you've entered, you'll never want to leave. Quality over quantity.
