I saw a post this morning that was equating realism in painting, as being from uneducated artists. It went on to equate abstract art, as having come from artists with college degrees. While I understand the sentiment, and I actually think that abstract art and free verse poetry are crap, the idea that those things are from highly educated people is a bit warped. By that thinking, then if you need an operation, you should not go see a doctor with an education in medicine. Because, your neighbor could do a better job in his garage.
