I’ll never “get” art. I look at that painting and think, “hey, good job”. It’s not worth much consideration past that point.

Have you ever tried painting yourself (and I don't mean the kitchen and living room). Because then you would almost certainly have gained appreciation for the techniques and skills involved.

The techniques and skills involved are exactly my point. I can’t do it, but recognize the skill involved.

As another example - if it looks like a monkey could’ve painted it, why does it sell for more than the cost of canvas and paint?
