You are a flower, Mike :)

At my age I don't embarrassed easily,

If you want to see, work I've done that I could consider "Garbage" just click on to my other AW here

http://pixels.com/profiles/r-allen-swezey.html

Throughout the first 2 pages is work that I made solely to be saleable as PODs ,in all it's forms

Not much success, yet, here on FAA...But I am doing a brisk business on other sites

Garbage stinks up the place, so I throw my garbage out

I only post garbage that is well presented:

Well, this isn't exactly garbage. In fact, it's what made the great plains so fertile!

This is a photo of a trash pile but it's not a garbage photo, at least in my humble opinion.

Great images....garbage far from being garbage

Well, I do not consider this garbage, not great but a nice water color. The thing is that I started this as a plein air while standing on the water front in Capetown. I brought it back to my home where it stayed in a drawer for two years. I pulled it out and threw it in the garbage. The next day I pulled it out and reworked it. So there is my garbage...

Maybe not garbage, but it is scrap...

Distorted and disturbing....man's world.....

Someone actually bought this as a greeting card. Who knew?

i have garbage... this was sold on another site.

Way, Way, Way, before FAA...I've been making a living, literally, selling GARBAGE..Some man-made garbage, but mostly Nature's Garbage.

For me there is no such a thing as garbage with little imagination and skills one can makes art out of garbage. here is one I made from some discarded coffee cups and was brought by someone works for Starbucks.

"Garbage" one finds on some beaches

Alfred-

You could probably sell a ton of these.

Mike-
Proof that garbage sells....nice work

Richard-

Not disturbing....just reality

One man's garbage is another man's treasure

Heiko

Would make a great movie poster

Is an abandoned vehicle garbage?

Alfred:
That is a truly wonderful piece of "garbage"

Here is my psychedelic phase I went through. I must confess Im not all the way through it yet but I was told this was the ugliest..

Thank you Cheryl! my studio is full of garbage I collected waiting for their make over. if I live anywhere near Dani I would have no need to buy any art supply LOL. Here is another one of my garbage.

This piece is made with garbage, the paper is recycled watercolours relegated to the "Nope - Next" pile...
I mash them up in my food processor, add drier lint, flowers, herbs, bits of what ever and it gets a second life or maybe a third...
I've even had mash parties and invited other artist friends to destroy and create...LOL, great way to take out that frustration.



Cheers, Barbara

I'm trying to see one piece of artwork on this threaD that is NOT a complete masterpiece. Here is my garbage and I'm sure you'll all agree. Haha!

Lisa,

The work on the far left looks good as usual.

Just say'n....

Dave

Dave, Thank you, LOL!

Lisa-

Your image suggests a masterpiece. The work in the background only adds to your beauty.

Barbara-

Very creative technique

Melissa-

Better than some of the art I have seen on the streets of PARIS.

Alfred-

I like the idea that you don't put your garbage in a bag. On the outside it looks great.

David-

"Is an abandoned vehicle garbage? :

Only if someone sees it that way. Good shots

@Lisa, Is that the "Mckayla is not impressed" look? :)

M-

Great subject matter with real life emotion. Play with it. You may be surprised.

This is one of my least favorite pieces. Its an abstract with hidden naked ladies in it. I use to be able to find them, but no longer can for some reason.

Sydne

I found two

Perhaps this qualifies, it is a root I dug up while landscaping.

I was inspired to paint this at the time, but now I cant remember what that inspiration was...

Kevin-

Nice piece....awful cheap

Thanks, I don't place a high value on my "found" work.

Janelle-

The fringe from a curtain and a view of swirling wind and rain though the window....jog your memory?

Kevin-

"Found" work.

I found a litho at an antique shop. The old fellow wanted 50 Euros for the piece. I offered 35. Accepted. I had it appraised. Cost: 200 Euros. I sold it for 5,000 Euros. Salvador Dali's signed and numbered litho of Tiger Lilly In The Theater.

Found work can be worth it!

Great story.
