  3. There was this Italian dude from a few centuries ago who had a knack for working in stone. Can't recall his name...

  4. "I haven't found out who the artist is."

    Someone who is good...but loses patience?

    Lovely pieces though. Doesn't look like soft stone either!

  6. This work is phenomenal.

    Is this work 'undiscovered'? in the english speaking world? Is it 'famous' in France?

    I would be honoured to view any one of these pieces in the flesh.

    This is what 'Art' is about. More please Eolake.

  7. Is this art? It's all basically the same thing. Kind of one-note. No thanks.

  8. Most successful artists are "kind of one-note", sadly. The market demands it. People want more of the same.

    True. Look at Picasso.

    Why of course! Master Splinterino, the grandest on the Renaissance Grand Masters.
    You're excused to have forgotten his name, Juan Sanchez Villa Lobos Ramirez; it IS a rather complicated one to recall.

    "Look at Picasso."
    For "similar" stuff, look at him there:
