I agree that there is stuff out there that brings millions, but that is of dubious artistic value. For example, consider how some of the work of the allegedly great abstract expressonist, Jackson Pollack, was produced! He probably could have drunk Kinkade under the table.

But Pollack actually DID produce at least one painting while walking on canvas with bloody feet and smearing blood and paint around. It sold some years ago in Australia I believe, for BIG bucks.
