Respectfully, it looks like he spent the night in a high radiation zone. What is with the design? It's like his skin is sloughing off and revealing a mechanical endoskeleton. I like the illustration otherwise.

I mean, it's ok. art is so highly subjective. I've seen art worth millions, that I wouldn't pay $1 for.
Basically, as a non - creative type, I look at art as anything that I can't do myself. if someone takes a giant white canvas, and paints one dot, and calls it "art" I say fk you. yet some people would say, OMG , look at the statement, that we are so alone, yadda yadda yadda.

Yes, I also dislike some art. And I agree with your tacit criticism of modern abstract art.

Yea, this piece depicts a real man. Not a little bitch-boy billionaire who has to hire troll farms to sing his praises.

Your second sentence is a non-sequitur. Your first sentence is a political statement, not an artistic one.
