Vote for the two artists of your choice! Votes generally go in the comments, but have been known to arrive by email, by postcard, or in a sealed envelope.
Please note that you may vote only once in each face-off. Opining that both of the artists in one of the two faceoffs is superior to the other is fine, but casting your votes for two artists in the same faceoff is not permissible.
I vote for the first artist presented in each pair

ReplyDeleteTer Borch on the bottom, and... I'm going to say it's a wash on the top. A good wash.

ReplyDeleteSo, up top we've got Tanguy prevailing over Noland, seven votes to four. On the bottom, Ter Borch has eight votes to Noldes' three. There was one abstention in both matches.
