Okay amateur, let's see you produce something as technically crafted, symbolically stylized, and emotionally evocative as she did. If you don't feel you have enough pain to draw on, we can break your spine and give you Lupus.

I’m not an amateur because I don’t paint. But her work looks like something some one in art school could paint today & wouldn’t get recognition.
