Why is my Painted exhaust manifold smoking?
I painted mine this week. The first time I drove it, it smoked a little. I noticed at a stoplight (and so did everyone else!) freaked me out for a while, but the smoke dissipates after just a couple miles. I've only driven a day with the painted exhaust. Smells a little like melted crayons. I'm just relieved the smoking is done! I predict you will be go to go!
Why did William dobell go to court for the portrait of Joshua smith?
In 1943 William Dobell's winning painting of Joshua Smith was challenged in court because of claims from other finalists (Mary Edwards and Joseph Wolinski) that it was a caricature not a portrait. The court battle was very public and everyone had an opinion on it, it made Dobell a household name and all the commotion made the Archibald prize in Sydney the most popular art competition in all of Australia. The court case was dismissed and Dobell became sick because of the controversy and debate so he left the attention of Sydney to live in Wangi Wangi in Lake Macquarie.
What influenced Hundertwasser's work?

He had a very abstract kind of Picasso style to his artwork. He uses a lot of complex patterns and shapes in his paintings, along with a mix of lots of bright colours
