It’s economical. The price of pigment has gone sky high.

The great plains were settled by pioneers who burned buffalo chips, as the Indians did. I’ve tried to do it - makes a low smouldering fire, makes you appreciate a wood fire.

Of all the aninmal poop, cow pies are the most benign. When I was growing up we tossed the dried ones like frisbees. Nothing terrible about them.

Do you need Kobe cow patties to make fine art?
If I give the cows laxatives and lay out some sheets can I sell the results as Jackson Pollock paintings?
