Tags

My reasoning for tagging the article for having too many examples is evident in this sentence:

Draws for the New York Times, Newsweek, Time Magazine, Rolling Stone, The New Yorker, The Atlantic Monthly, The Village Voice, Town & Country, Men's journal, Esquire, Vanity Fair, The Boston Globe and the following companies: The World Bank, Pepsi, Levi's, AT&T, MTV, Saatchi & Saatchi, Arista Records, Bluenote Records, Simon & Shuster, Penguin, Random House, Grove Press, Citibank, Houghton Mifflin, Bloomingdale's, Disney and more.

That's quite a mouthful. The other tags speak for themselves.

Lardy's illustrations, while not to my taste, are rather interesting and I hope that someone with more knowledge of the subject can make this into a better article. —Travis ^talk 00:54, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I did my best to render this article in good English and make it readable. I left in the long lists (specifics are a good thing, I think), but I tried to isolate them a little so the reader can skip or scan them at will. I echo Travis's sentiment, but I doubt I'm qualified to write art criticism, so I left that alone.Milkbreath 01:38, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your attention to the article. I can tell when something is wrong, but I have absolutely no doubt that I'm not qualified to write art criticism. That subject is certainly best left to someone more expert than I. Cheers! —Travis ^talk 03:39, 29 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
