Default Any painter coming to Perth?

Hi Guys
Bro in law is a painter, has his own business and is desperate for another guy to help him out, he is turning away so much work at the moment it seems such a shame.
So if any of you guys fancies painting over here let me know and I can pass on the details.

What's your brother's style?

I'm an existentialist cubist with neo-renaissance leanings. Would I be of any use at all?

There's little money in cubism in Perth, the big bucks are in the Diego Rivera commissions.

Thank you sooooooooo much, Sally!

I'm not sure I could retrain as a Diego, but do you think a neo-Frida Kahlo might have a future in Perth.

Or should I try Adelaide?

A lot of people are already doing the Frida stuff, hard to break in there. Rothko is a possibility if you have some large brushes, Brisbane is lapping him up.

Too much like hard work. I'm thinking now maybe Willem de Konnig?

Anyway, time for my morning constitutional with the canine - I shall ponder my artistic future down under during our walk!

Do you mean like Jackson Pollock?

A bit dated, but surely due for a revival...
