i really MUST have too much time on my hands. a short letter i wrote in response to a post by Times writer Bruce Ramsey, concerning an artist's use of hundreds of gallons of red "paint" to completely cover the exposed tip of an iceberg in the Arctic, got published in the Seattle Times Opinion Blog (STOP). it can be seen
here, about mid-page (for now); or
here permanently, in the archives of the blog. someone hire me as a writer already- i'm on a roll.
i've edited this post to include my letter in its entirety for those who don't want to surf to another site to read it:
Re: Toxic art
Regarding "
Toxic Art," a reader writes:
The "artist" in question probably got the idea from the incredibly bad logo for Sherwin Williams Paint. It features a representation of the Earth being drowned in red paint.
The slogan? "Cover The Earth". How they've escaped the wrath of environmentalists is beyond me.
