Not being a art aficionado, I just buy what I like. Flounder, I noticed on your site that it describes your work as Lowbrow art. I am curious how Lowbrow Art applies to your work?

I don't necessarly think of my tiki art as lowbrow but alot of my other works like the seven deadly sins with cartoon charaters definitely falls into that catagory. Any time you bring religion and cartoons into the same catagory I think it makes it lowbrow. Under my Playa's section you will find the same.
"A movement to make art lacking highly cultivated and intellectual tastes acceptable"?
There's a good definition of lowbrow here:

Do you think that my work doesn't fit into this catagory or were you just asking what it was.
Also, hurry up and post something again so your not stuck at 666 Post.
