ReplyDeleteLong, Kelly, Gozzoli, Fouquet
ReplyDeleteNot loving this rung, outside of Gozzoli and Lowry, but I'm also not feeling too much hate. I'll also add a vote for Leger, whose more abstract piece above I like more than his usual fare, and Long, since I also am a big fan of walking.
ReplyDeleteCragg, Lowry, and Long.
ReplyDeleteVote against Fouquet.
Susan votes for "Three this week, Leger, LS Lowry & Gozzoli."
ReplyDeleteLegar and Craig, maybe, for me? I actually dislike Lowry quite a bit, so I'll go negative on him this time.
ReplyDeleteKelly, Gozzoli, Cragg.
ReplyDeleteSame as Nora
ReplyDeleteI'm late again. But if you're still counting, Leger and Crag and Long.
ReplyDeleteI'm going with Jean. Those angels look like they're made from chocolate.
