  1. Kupka is interesting, but Lam is... Wow. There's a lot going on in his pictures. A strong vote for Lam.

  2. I really like both of them and would have voted for either against less strong opponents. I'll go for Lam because wow.

  8. I don't go much for the trippy-and-weird for its own sake, now that I'm stolid and respectable, but Lam is groovy enough to catch my First Round vote.

  9. If you're going to do what Kupka is doing, I think you ought to do it the way he's doing it.

  10. The votes are in, the die is cast, and it's Kupka over wow, 7 votes to 4! Kupka is up against some serious beachcomber art in Round Two -- we'll see if he can survive!
