Is it so hard to believe that someone like Marilyn manson can paint? I mean he sure has enough practice on his own face. Obviously not everything on the website is not that nice to look at, there are some pictures that are highly disturbing. But there are also some nice ones, like the one posted, and the cat. People seem to find it oddly difficult to believe that someone like Manson can produce decent art, your thoughts?

Well, the guy is a geek inside... So, I am not surprised at all. (well, not that all geeks are good artists)
Lol, no not all geeks are good artists.
I love the painting. It's wonderful. I don't know why people think the way they do about who can do this, who can do that.
Why would Manson not be a good artist? Humans are a pain in the ass with ten thousand preconceived notions (each) about the way things should be.
