 Pricasso, that debonair penis painter from the Gold Coast who looks like a cross between Rod Stuart and the Mad Hatter, has submitted his first painting for this year's Archibald Prize. His moody pop art rendition of Sexpo hypnotist, Mark Anthony, is pretty damn good in itself but when you consider the fact that he painted it entirely with his penis dipped in paint, it transcends the normal boundaries of 'art' and arrives at a more intriguing place. Just what that is will ultimately be left to the judges of Australia's premier art comp but we're tipping it will be a big hit with the storemen this year. Pricasso's art and his legend go before him (as does his..er..paintbrush). His works are now being seriously collected not just for their unique freak show appeal (he's the ONLY penis painter in the world) but also for the quality of art that he produces. Already his works have shot up in value from a few hundred dollars to a couple of thousand each. When all other investments are shrinking, Pricasso's are expanding! If you'd like to have a look at his current portfolio and puchase an original painting before they get out of reach, visit the Sex Party website and go to the Gallery section.
