"I always thought of Kincaid as greeting card art on steroids. Nothing to complain about, but it appeals to older women who are well off, and not particularly knowledgeable about art."

Not a darn thing wrong with that though. That's a market. A niche. He used his talent to make a fortune while he was alive. Very lucky and very smart. He choose the commercial route and I can't see anything cynical about that. Now if he is cheating his franchises that's different but that' his business side..not the art itself.

My only quibble with Kincaid is that I seriously doubt all of his "original" work is original. I wouldn't buy his work, but if someone else wants to, that's their business.
