Wiz Painting Skills
Ok, last bit of publicity for the Crystal City BID, whatever that is, but some of this Wiz artwork really needs to be in a museum somewhere. The American Museum of (Court) Vision-ary Art or something. Here were the six best pieces of Wiz art, from bottom to top.
No. 6: Darius Songaila's "9." He took a lot of pride in it, and I was pretty impressed at the time, but looking at the image I'm bored. Never bore an art critic.
No. 5: Antawn Jamison's Nose Star/Nick Young's "1." An unintentional collaboration. Jamison clearly went above and beyond any teammate in attempting to make the plane look authentic, but the artist had to draw the star and he only filled it in.
No. 4: DeShawn Stevenson's "2 Family," near the rear of the plane. High marks for creativity, low marks for execution.
No. 3: Antawn Jamison's Silhouette. The adidas touch is very convincing.
No. 2: Nick Young's Silhouette. Love the fro, although it doesn't necessarily reflect reality. Wish it did.
No. 1: Songaila's self-portrait. Stunning.

Dan,
Painting skills aside, this is a lot more interesting: http://caronbutler3.com/?p=51
One of the Wiz kids is ambidextrous! This sounds like a case for Agent Steinz. Please get to the bottom of this.
