My response (marker pen in paper version)

I love the line movement, the curves, the dots in relation to the straight line. I also like how you chosen to place the words, one being in the centre and the other being on the bottom corner almost opposite in relation.              Now it’s my art, nice and interactive.                   It is hard to critic your work when I don’t know what it is. I am presuming what i am writing now is it if so I think it is perhaps a bit lazy.           Irony alone is not art. Of course you know this which is why you have done this so you can use your intelligence and irony to make great art.        Pen mark on the right, dodgy ‘a’, messed up ‘s’ on this.                I don’t understand the intention of this piece. I’m seeing it as the writing itself. I like the protective ‘T’ which overhangs the ‘h’ and I like the ‘a’ in ‘art’ as it looks like a musical note. There is not enough depth or complexity in this for it to hold my attention.                Very Magritte.              An image would be nice.                Is your art what you do? Is your art what you feel? Is your art what you say? Is your art who you are? Who is to say it is not art?        You are what you think.                 What is your art? Are you collecting ideas?                  No no no YES.    ‘nothing’ that is my answer.      Quite frantically ugly.           Banal (pronounced Bay nal).                   Criticise is the English spelling (semantics)           Tres bien             and this is my bum.    Really well done to you          I think it is wrong to make a piece of ‘Art’ that you want people to criticise. Obviously people are going to criticise it because you are telling them to. I think it would be more efficient if you actually make something that has more to criticise and you will get more response.                  A combination of confidence and insecurity; the lines here remind me of Agnes Martin yet the signature message is important and amazing and Martin Creed like – absorbency and critically and intuitive spasm = you + your work.              Not sure what to criticise. Maybe I don’t get conceptual art in a post-modern world, but, show me some substance.
