Back in the Renaissance we used to send minstrels strolling round Europe singing at painters telling them what not to do with oil paint. How we laughed when that bloke from Vinci overdid his sfumato gimmick! Every bloody time, especially on that soppy cow, Gherardini's missus. And that Brunelleschi, would he draw a proper picture with everything piled on top of everything else? Would he fuck! It was all perspective, perspective, perspective. Knobhead. I bet he got his idea for the dome when saw himself in a mirror. That Michelangelo though, he knew what he was doing. Big muscly blokes with tits, that's what a proper painting's about, I can tell you. None of that poncy chiaroscuro crap from him. Cheers!
