[Intro]
(Two, one)

[Chorus]
Da-da-da-da-da, Minkin
Da-da-da-da-da, Minkin
Da-da-da-da-da, Minkin
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, Minkin
Da-da-da-da-da, Minkin
Da-da-da-da-da, Minkin
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da

[Interlude]
The paintings of Marjorie Minkin have exploded into the world
Her dynamic influctuous paintings always seem to fit perfectly into that empty space on your wall
The texture of a Minkin painting is so vividly intransient that it seems to reach out into the room and grab you
The colors have been described as, quote, "more vibrant than any sunset", unquote
Fellow artists are often amazed by Minkin's work

Sometimes the edge of a painting will grab me
Sometimes a corner
And it will attempt to wrap me up
Often succeeding
And suffocate me
And then spit me out

Who would you say is the single main influence of Minkin's work?

The Ubiquitous Smokey

Marjorie's paintings are influenced by her radical philosphy of art

Some would say art is from within
You know, a spiritual thing
I don't buy that crap, not for a single second
I would have to say, art is from without
A painting is like life
Not your life, not my life
In fact, not life at all

Who do you consider to be your main influence?

That would definitely be our family cat, the Ubiquitous Smokey

Minkin's own mother has been an encouraging and supporting source of encouragement and support
Mrs. Cherry, how do you perceive your daughter's paintings?

(I think they're absolutely stunning)

Mom, can we go out and buy a
Marjorie Minkin painting, please?

After you eat your dinner!

Yes, you can buy your own paintings fresh from the Minkin studio
This month only, bite-sized paintings also available

[Chorus]
Da-da-da-da-da, Minkin
Da-da-da-da-da, Minkin
Da-da-da-da-da, Minkin
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, Minkin
Da-da-da-da-da, Minkin
Da-da-da-da-da, Minkin
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
