  2. Second artist all the way. That one with the severed feet in the bathtub totally looks like a Slayer album cover. Winner, winner, chicken dinner.

    The other guy just looks like he makes modern furniture for rich people's condos.

  3. Kahlo, easy. Her diary is pretty amazing, published as "The Diary of Frida Kahlo". Check it out.

  4. Kahlo! Just visited her and Diego Rivera's houses (connected by a bridge) back in December.

  5. Yeah, I'll go Kahlo. Good to see Leonardo Piccioni back in the jury.

  6. Yeah, that square Judd just can't stack up to Frida Kahlo. But you have to admire the 20th century for producing both of them.

  8. And Candida upholds the principle that a democracy should never vote unanimously for Frida Kahlo.

    Other than that, Judd had a rough run of it, going 1-13. Ouch!

    Thanks for voting!
