@elliotoblio wouldn't matter if your art was better, you're on youtube trolling about how you can beat him in a fight. Go out and put in the effort Lister has into displaying/promoting his work rather than being a keyboard warrior.

[elliotoblio]

i could beat him in a fight any day, hands down, even if he trained really hard for a week with Mick Tyson as his coach, id still pummel him good ! i challenge you Lister to a show down, an art world boxing tournament, artist vs artist in the name of art ! you name the place & ill be there, when ive finished with you you will be taken out of there in one of your card board boxes ! fool ! i pity you fool ! you will meet your maker boy ! ill send you home to mummy ! bitty time for you ! back to

[elliotoblio]

@CousinRabbit i just read it again & an artist is a painter you dip shit, he thinks hes a painter because Basquiat was a painter & its trendy to be a painter ? an artist is an artist & most so called artists are wankers ful stop, this is why i haven't shown my works because the art world SUXS big time, his TV's in box's is Fukin sculpture, to say your a painter in this day an age is just saying im a big FAT WANKER ! these so called street artists need to chickeded check them selves before they

[CousinRabbit]

@elliotoblio Bitter party of one, your table is waiting...bitter party of one! He never said he was an artist, he stated he was a painter. And yes you're right, anyone could put TV's in card board boxes but he did it "first" and thats what makes the work new, not average, smart, contemporary and exciting. You should take some art history classes, it might help you. What was that you say, your artwork shits on his...are you saying your art is from your asshole? Sorry, Its been done before...next!

[elliotoblio]

this guy is not that good, dont believe the hype, everyone is a fuckin artist, put your average joe in his position & yeah cardboard boxes with tv's, anyone could do this shit, its not special, its not new, hes very average, i tink he just rips off ideas of David choe, what is he talking about, conceptual, ummmmm, main stream media, ummm, channels umm, mixing it up ?????????? my art shits on his, look out lister !
