Your reputation rests on your overall average. If you have a lot duds floating around after you’re gone, your grandchildren will be in a tough spot. They won’t want to get rid of your bozos, so you should now.
That’s why, with the help of my teenage son Franklin, I invented the “Gallery Flambeau.” This solar-powered, environmentally friendly device uses a 4-foot wide array of parabolically positioned, laser-mounted mirrors to magnify the power of the sun over 300 times. Displayed under its unforgiving glare, a painting magically transforms into a cloud of smoke and a shower of ash. Gone forever. Press delete. Your Artistic Average goes up a tiny notch.
Remember, kids, don't play with fire, and protect your eyes from the intense brightness of the hotspot by always wearing the approved Mongolian Mountaineering Safety Goggles.

b) Great rendition of Archimedes' 'death ray' (the parabolic mirror device). I saw one like it on Mythbusters. Ha."
The breathing of artistic smoke may bring unexpected sied-effects such as:
- dizziness.
- mild irritation of nasal membrane.
- use of exotic eyewear.
Do it at your own peril.
And that's why my favourite art-disposal method include a portable cremation oven, a small single-engine aircraft and thirty-two kilograms of high-explosives. I get so many duds when drawing before I manage to come up with a good picture, everything else must go with a bang! =P
In all seriousness now:
Some of the pictures laying on the ground look pretty good from the angle we were seeing them. I'll keep trying, one day I'll be able to afford such high standards. =)"
Looks like you have a lot of fun with this dud-culling!"
Ran across this on YouTube and reminded me of Gallery Flambeau.

Can the Gallery Flambeau melt rocks?"
