Also the thick globs that formed would have tried funny. I've heard it said that chunks of his paintings fall off fairly often. <BR/><BR/>Not too many people pay attention to fat-over-lean anymore. Hmm. I'll try to find some modern examples.Glendon Mellowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03582347493421110738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-978531190643365040.post-41689493573975518502008-11-08T04:03:00.000-05:002008-11-08T04:03:00.000-05:00I recall you mentioning some modern paintings that...I recall you mentioning some modern paintings that broke this rule when you were talking about this at the PZ dinner last Saturday.
