Closet Sale - 2012

Aaron Miller


Not to be too critical
of the work of our membership,
but I do think
that smaller is usually better
as far as we are concerned.

Aaron Miller




And not to root too hard
for the home team,
but I do think
that some of the best
contemporary outsider art
is to be found in this show.


(and what could "outsider artist" possibly mean
if it does not include all those
who paint compulsively,
enthusiastically,
and primarily for themselves,
regardless of their apparent
skill and knowledge)

And I can't believe
that these paintings
were all selling
for under $300,
and many of them
hardly half of that.

It's so delightful
to compare Aaron's and Ali's
contrasting approaches to the nude.

Errol Jacobson

It's fun to see Errol paint a recognizable model
the same way he paints a street scene
through a blurry car window
