A lot of people on Instagram are praising this artist. Can any other fellow artist here tell me what the fuck I’m missing or is this just more money laundering ? The artist is Robert Nava

This ⬆️ I have a very real emotional response when I see a Picasso, Guston, or Basquait. All artist that “paint like children” but with them there’s an interplay between the subject, composition, and color that keeps me interested. I don’t see that here
It’s almost like “painting like a child” isn’t literally about making art that a child would make, but about rethinking how we see and understand the world and breaking away from social inhibitions that can keep the artist from taking risks.
I could honestly see an OK piece being developed from this shark if you built up lots of bright colors and made the focal point the mouth. Why is the mouth all the way on the left? It’s the most interesting part.
They're good because they're trying to see the subject like a child would, but still paint it like a world class artist.
basquiat also has this ironic but sincere shit that hits me like a truck
