I noticed about this comic strip:
There is art within a comic (comics are somewhat related to art); I call that Art within an Art.
Both the painting and the Comic are non-representational, but one is mocking the other for its
non-understandability (I’m thinking of a word that rhymes with pie-rony).
The painting is a surprisingly good example of analogous and complementary color schemes.
The emotion of the painting is somewhat related to the emotion evoked by laughter. I feel myself tickled and squeezed a bit by the comic and the paining in the same manner.
Oh yeah, and I didn’t go to Art School…per se…
The man(?)/ogre standing to the right of the painting is strangely floating. Notice that he has no cast-shadow. By the absence of a shadow I can only gather that he is either a strange ghost dwarf-manchild, or a floating jellobaby. Floating things and ghosts don’t usually have distinct shadows like normal people on the ground.
To whom do the words in the comic belong (there is no speech bubble)? Is it the jello-dwarf-manbaby? Or is it the omniscient narrator?
