My office is in the front room of a run-down 12 megapixel sensor but the rent suits me and the landlord doesn't ask many questions.

i have to have a car because otherwise i cant drive around the country solving mysteries while being doggedly pursued by federal marshals for a crime i did not commit (9/11)

See, this kind of photographic art takes guts that I just don’t have. There isn’t even an actual image here, or indeed anything you could even have an image of.

I still have so much to learn here...

I honestly don’t know if I can take another photo after seeing these. What else is left to achieve?

I have erased
the pics
that were on
the camera

and which
you were probably
saving
for Flickr

Forgive me
they were poorly framed
so bland
and so blurred

what is sweetness? the crux of art. some might say that you can have art without sweetness. these people are hosed! bitter art is defined by its lack of sweetness; sweetness dominates by its absence. to depict something, anything, you have to find the innate sweetness within it, without which there is nothing that makes it worth looking at. there's nothing sweeter than a quail basking in the sun and if you can't recognise that then you don't have the touch, i don't care how expensive your stupid camera is

my camera's not worth a single hot dime. i'm not a photographer. in fact i hate photographers! my quail cost five bucks each from a gentle agriculture teacher who'd broken his back and needed to get rid of all his animals. they're small, fat and incredibly stupid and yet they've taught me more about art than any of you will ever know. yes, even you

bitch are you arguing with this perfect man



he is art, made by the lord itself. could you create something so perfectly round and quizzical? i didn't think so. when he's horny he stands up very straight and trills, a sight more affecting than any photo i've seen in my entire life. he knows what he wants and he goes out to get it. he breaks my heart. his name is felafel

i want you to realise you can never create something as perfect as felafel. now you must spend the rest of your life trying.

quail only live for 3-4 years. felafel is four years old. his days are numbered. this touch of poignancy is the secret to his beauty, his ineffable sweetness, his status as an exquisite object



behold the masterpiece

Quails are great birds but is it really art if you don’t incorporate your own urine into the photo in some way?

Careful. I get the feeling op is the temperamental type. Doesn’t take criticism well.

The absence of urine is the art, it's a critique on every other artist.
