Sisley, though Rosa is kind of hot.
ReplyDeleteI think Rosa's the better artist, but upon reflection I decided I'd be more sad to see Sisley leave the tournament, so my vote goes to Sisley.
ReplyDeleteI always go for the more intense emotional experience. In my view that's Rosa.
ReplyDeleteAlthough I like both, I think it might be time for both to leave the tourney. I guess I'll go with Rosa.

ReplyDeleteSusan votes for Sisley.
ReplyDeleteSisley for me. Rosa doesn't really fire my rocket.
ReplyDeleteThe goth Rosa
ReplyDeleteAnd Sisley takes the contest, six votes to four! He'll head into Elimination Round against Rivera for the chance to take on Charles Sheeler down the road.
