I know most of us fit in his target market of "Fine Art Loves" intersecting with "Taco Lovers" so I thought I would pass it on.

I think he should broaden his niche to include tacos with lettuce and tomatos too. This may increase his sales.

I thought the images were very dark and underexposed.

I'm going to have to run to the taco stand, because I'm sure I can do better than that...

What say we turn this thread into a (G rated PhotoDude) post your best taco thread.

Which is why it isn't art. Art is supposed to make you feel something besides confusion I think. These are just gross tacos in sketchy lighting with a bad black and white treatment.

It most certainly is art. Just because you don't like it or don't get it doesn't make it less of art.

I don't get Jackson Pollack; his stuff does nothing for me. No emotional response at all. But that doesn't mean it isn't art.
