Mint Moth (Pyrausta aurata)
These tiny colourful moths are active in day and night.
As the name suggests they are often found near mint, but also catnip, salvia, and in this case near patch of marjoram - all food plants for their caterpillars

Delicious little morsels! I made these per the request of Kimi. She wanted teal frosting, since that was the birthday girl's FAVE color. I decided to add a few simple decorations to compliment this pretty color. Featured are MINI ice cream cone cupcakes. Grasshopper AKA Mint Chocolate flavored. ENJOY!

My pot of mint survived the winter outside. I picked off the brown woody bits and it's bounced back and ready for mojito season.
Moroccan-style mint tea is now commonly served all through the West Arab World (North Africa). It is served not only at mealtimes but all through the day, and it is especially a drink of hospitality, commonly served whenever there are guests. Unlike Moroccan food, cooked by women, this tea is traditionally a man's affair: prepared by the head of the family. It is served to guests, and it is impolite to refuse it.

It is thought that by eating two to five cups of mint tea a day can significantly reduce the increased hair growth in women because of mint tea reduces the level of male hormones in some women cause unwanted hair on the face and chest especially during menopause.

Roy Lichtenstein’s Take On Tony Abruzzo Half Way To Nine Figures
On the left is the comic panel by Tony Abruzzo, located by David Barsalou. And on the right is Sleeping Girl by Roy Lichtenstein. Guess which one has just sold at auction for almost forty-five million dollars. Yup.

So was it my Twitter tip off that got you on this or were you there already?

Nah, it's just that given the context of the story, he thought it'd be appropriate to present somebody else's work as his own
toodoor
It's a good strategy to adopt...
What have I said? Now we're going to have Moore derailed threads!
Felipe
Of course. Because Lichtenstein is respected due to the quality and originality of his illustrations.
The same way Andy Warhol is respected for being this great photographer, and Marcel Duchamp astonished the world thanks to his amazing technique of producing urinals.

It sickens me that people associate Lichtenstein with comic book art. That would be like saying Hitler was a great Jewish leader.
There. Figured we would get Godwin's Law out of the way.
Seriously. This asshole did nothing but enforce high art snobs to think better of themselves and worse of actual comic artists.
Funny. I was at a pop art store in Downtown Disney in Florida and they had some total knock off prints with Golden Age Batman and Silver Age Superman. They did’nt allow photos and I forgot the guy's name.
So not only did Lichtenstein screw over comic artists in favor of his so called high art and pop art... the fuck face set precedence for generations of lazy pop artists to follow.

the preview of the Hero Initiative comic I just saw over at CBR has a great personal view of the Lichtenstein deal .. by Russ Heath .. whose work was also appropriated by Lichtenstein ..

The fine art world seems to simultaneously sneer at...and copy from the commercial artists quite often. Theres also the case of Glenn Brown (one of Charles Saatchi's favourites, that should in itself tell you enough about him) copied works from sci-fi book cover artists Tony Roberts and Chris Foss and passed them off as his own work. Thankfully he was forced by the courts to credit Roberts and Foss and pay compensation to them too.
Rick Worley
Oh man, again with this dumb shit about Lichtenstein? Presenting the original next to the work Lichtenstein created from it doesn't prove something unless you don't know what you're talking about to begin with. Lichtenstein wanted people to know that he was referencing something pre-existing,that was the entire point.
Locusmortis
That doesn't stop him from being a lazy, thieving hack.
Rick Worley
He didn't steal anything, that's completely ridiculous, but I'm not gonna have a debate that was already talked out 50 years ago, even though this message board seems to think it's still news every few months.

Roy Lichtenstein - Patron saint of thieving hack artists.

Note... No acknowledgment was ever given by Christie's. Once again my research was ripped-off
by the Art Establishment. So now...Every time someone contacts me for Lichtenstein information, I simply say NO !! -- If that doesn't work - I tell them to go FU*K themselves.
