That's my name, that's my chosen piece and here are my answers.

My friends call me Russell so you can call me Davis.

The artist I have chosen is Joan Miró i Ferrà 

The Gold of the Azure (1967) https://www.albertina.at/en/exhibitions/miro/


Answers to your questions:
  1. Art Education.
  2. Teaching.
  3. Travel, music collecting and creating art, whipped cream, leather straps and chocolate sprinkles.
  4. What does a rebellious artist do after post modernism?
  5. It is beautiful in it's simplicity, playfulness and bold near primary colors. I chose this artwork because Joan Miró i Ferrà didn't revel in pretentiousness and knew when to walk away before over complicating a piece of work. I could have gone for a landscape, but then I'd rather live in it, or a nude that I'd rather sleep with, so after a second or two of cogitation I decided the feelings of jealousy, lust and greed are not normally considered beautiful and I chose this painting which is devoid of politics, power, fantasy or envy, which are most of the subjects you definitely will want to avoid with a dozen strangers that you're about to spend a fall term chatting online with in your art class.
