  1. Is it just me, or can you also see the amadillo in the lower right corner?

  2. Russ says:

    On the whole, it looks Churchill-proof to me.

    Though undoubtedly he’d be glad to borrow elements of it for his next piece of artwork.

  3. Diana says:

    It has an edge to it … a nuanced minimalist work.

  4. Russ from Winterset says:

    I’d like to respectfully disagree with my fellow Russ:  “Churchill-proof” is as much of a misnomer as “bullet-proof”.  The best you can do is “Churchill-resistant”.

    A white leopard?  Attacking a white rabbit?  In a blizzard?  Smells like “Winter Attack 2; the Natives Strike Back” to me.

    TW – “stock”, as in “. . .don’t take too much STOCK in what I say, I’m all hopped up on meds and pissed that I missed the Armadillo Dance.”

  5. Zeb Trout says:

    So that is the bird’s eye view.  What would the white rabbit’s eye view be?

  6. Eric J says:

    A powerful statement on white privilige and the invisibility of people of color.

  7. Michael says:

    I just breathless, breathless I say, at the grand sweep of your artistic vision.

    When does the bidding start?

  8. Pure Herbal Viagra says:

    Sheesh.  More precocious post-modern realism.  Could this be any more of a cliche, you hack?

  9. Pure Herbal Viagra says:

    Pure Herbal Viagra:

    Not fair.  You’re missing the elegant use of negative space that is almost Asian in its subtlety.

  10. Uriah Heep says:

    I have to agree with Pure Herbal Viagra on this one.

  11. Carin says:

    Could you photoshop my dog into that picture?

  12. Bill from INDC says:

    There isn’t anything there. What the fuck, Goldstein?

  13. commander0 says:

    My wife says “Pshaw, derivative, if not plagiaristic, crap.”

  14. Major John says:

    Oh, its there, man.  You just have to, y’know, be able to see outside your kulak paradigm…

  15. Carin says:

    (perhaps Bill is colorblind and can’t see the subtle differences in color – let’s laugh and make fun of him.)

  16. dillene says:

    Poor bunny- he looks scared.

  17. Salt Lick says:

    Just my luck. Neo takes a pill and gets out of the Matrix. I take it and go blind.

  18. JWebb says:

    I got racks and racks of those in my studio, Jeff. PLAGIARIST!

  19. me says:

    The birth of NanoArt!

  20. Diana says:

    Just ignore Bill.  He’s a realist.

  21. gail says:

    I know what it reminds me of! The comment block before I write on it! Except without a box around it. Cool, Jeff.

  22. CraigC says:

    You missed a spot.

  23. Alien Grey says:

    Wonderful ! It a brillent indictment of todays post modern world. It all there Scripted Reality TV shows , Movies made from 60’s and 70’s TV shows, MSM , Post Modern Architure, Sean Hannity , Senators running to nearest camera to demand someone resign, while listening to Ipods. I could go on about the minialist approach, But I feel very sad for the scared looking bunny.

  24. Beck says:

    .

    ?

    fardles

  25. Snap out of it, you dopes!  Jeff’s having a mocking laugh at your fear of seeming un-hip!

    I mean, c’mon!  Can’t you see it’s upside-down?

    Turing = just, as in, This is just like that quip some 1950s art critic made about “the herd of independent minds.”

  26. ed says:

    Hmmm.

    “ It a brillent indictment of todays post modern world. “

    I don’t want indictments, I want convictions.

    smile

  27. Uriah Heep says:

    *standing on head, looks at picture*

    Shit, he’s right.  I feel like a fool.

  28. stower says:

    Copyright infringement!!!!

    I made that same print 4 months ago when I was trying to get my printer to work! I’m gonna sue!

  29. Actually, if you right-click on it, it makes a rather nice desktop wallpaper.  Can’t decided whether it looks better stretched, or tiled.

  30. Sean M. says:

    Racist!

  31. MC says:

    Pithy, Bill. 

  32. The Sanity Inspector says:

    Turing = art, as in Humor like this especially appeals to a friend of mine named Art.

  33. Desert Cat says:

    *snort!* Who’s “Ward Churchill” now?  This looks just like that “polar bear eating marshmallows in a snowstorm” piece that was popularized back in the ‘70’s.

  34. McGehee says:

    Jeff, that spot just above the leopard’s left eyelash. It looks like you used ivory instead of ecru. Was that intentional?

  35. Nolo Contendere says:

    Wait a minute, buster.  I saw this exact same picture in the NY Times Magazine a couple of weeks ago.  It was a portrait by some guy wih a pony tail named Churchheil (or was that Felchwell?  Whatever) of Howard Dean’s family eating vanila ice cream.  Without sprinkles. Unless sprinkles come in white. Then maybe there were sprinkles. I was shocked to my very marrow that they all appeared so pale as to be Republicans, by Howlin’ Howie’s own criteria.

  36. Kazmin says:

    Clearly the rabbit is meant to symbolize the pre-Stone Age peaceful tribal matriarchies, while the leopard symbolizes the tree-bulldozing Republican-voting patriarchy that enslaved womynkind and herded them into the kitchen.

    The birch tree in the background, of course, is a phallus. It doesn’t really LOOK like a phallus on first glance, but if you squint real hard you can see the head.

  37. Gamer says:

    I wish to lodge a complaint against the colorist sentiment expressed in this comment:

    (perhaps Bill is colorblind and can’t see the subtle differences in color – let’s laugh and make fun of him.)

    Carin

    I stand with my brother of monochromatic vision and demand an apology.

    Either that or some pie, your choice.

    TW: Hes, As in, “He’s going to get that pie right in the face I betcha.”

  38. mojo says:

    Uh-oh, Jeff. I think you’re being mocked – by Antipodeans!

  39. Dittybopper says:

    Is that Robery Byrd in the background?

  40. All geeks, check your D&D 2nd Ed. Monstrous Manual, under “Invisible Man”.  Same pic, it’s even credited in the beginning of the book.
