Shag...it just doesn't end... - Page 2

I am married to a man whose idea of great art is Kinkade.

It hurts. It really does.

wendybeth · 10-19-2005, 04:03 PM

That his idea of art is Kinkade, or that we are picking on Kinkade?

We have several early Kinkade litho's- very nice, actually. He's just gone overboard in the mass-production area.

Bleh, I never liked Kinkade's style. I totally get the comparison between Shag and Kinkade in terms of mass-marketing, but I just love Shag's style so much that I don't care. When I first heard of him, I had no idea he was well known in any way. Just saw the stuff he was doing for Disney and thought it was cool. I never conisdered anything other than what it is, pop graphic art. But it's damned good pop graphic art.

But even I'm shagged out. Actually, I'm pretty Disney-arted out at the moment. 5 prints plus a map reproduction is MORE than enough for our tiny place.

Yeah, I'm Shagged out, too. I love the new color of the Adventureland shirt I saw at the Park over the weekend, but I was wearing my "old" color shirt of the same pattern at the time ... bringing home the message of why I should not buy that shirt. Bah on subsequently releasing a more pleasant color of the same frelling shirt.

And much as I love the Frontierland shirt, and am tickled by the concept of a shirt for each of the five original lands, I just cannot see me ever wearing the westernwear. Hawaiian shirts? I'm all over 'em. Bowling shirts? They're great (though the Tomorrowland shirt is cut more like a smock). Country Western, however, is where I must draw the graphic line.

See, I like the Western shirt because it is so over the top! I will wear that one with some really cute other items so it looks 50's western. I can't wait. If only I had shoes.........

*waves hands at feet*

Time for someone to visit a Boot Barn for some totally cool Tony Lama's to go with the shirt.

I agree with iSm on the Western shirt- very high hurl factor there. Of course, I live in an area where it would be considered haute coutere.

I'll make sure not to wear it around you then. Wouldn't want you to throw up on it.

We could wear ours together and be the Queasy Sisters.

Sorry, but it's difficult, living in a cowtown and despising country crap. You should have seen me the other day at work when a bitchy co-worker tried to put the radio on country music. She did it just to piss me off, and she succeeded. She won't do it again.

It's been years since I've hurled on clothing, btw.
