"Is It Art? (Freaky Glitch)" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Paint pen splotches on hairy grandpa arm with digital embellishments, color, moshing, and primitive animation.] If we are to believe Duchamp, it's art if the artist says it is. The question most folks want answered is, "Is it worth money?" No. My artwork is far too valuable to be understood in terms of DOLLARS (or other currencies.) This work is EXPRESSING something very deep and personal to me... My arm hair... ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)

xxxxxxxxxxxxx
"Out Damn Spot!" by Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
[Ballpoint pen on notebook page with minor digital color correction.] Notebook art is the purest form. MOST of the time, it's not meant to be shared, cuz it's just for scribbling and anxiety abatement and ink & paper wasting! Sometimes, though, it seems like people might be amused. (It's all nonsense - but nonsense from a fool can be VERY meaningful!) ---Richard F. Yates (Holy Fool)
