Why yes, I do believe I am a nut burger... and no, I'm not trying to stir up trouble, I just personally think Shag is in a whole different league than Biskup. Although both cite similar influences, you could argue than Shag started a new Genre, of which many have tried to emulate. I think the art world as a whole suffers from a lack of opinionated patrons. I digress, but everyone can't be good. These days you have people putting cow crap on a shovel and calling it art. Mark Kostabi is a classic example that a sucker is born every minute, and I think good artists suffer because of a "liberalization" of what good art is defined as. BTW, I think your art is great and should command much more $, but that is just my humble little opinion.
