Why Would Anyone Want To Buy This Dumb Painting?

Question

Okay, maybe it's not dumb but when I painted this I did it as a private, personal 'in joke', a satire that I figured no one would 'get' except me.

Even though I've posted copies of it on my blog and in other places, like Saatch, if never got any feedback. So I assumed it's appeal would always be limited.

But someone just bought it and I'll never know who or why or what appeal it has to them.

So, I'm seriously wondering if you guys see a message here that I thought only I would see? Could I have underestimated the appeal of this silly painting?

I would. 

Why?  Cause I like it. Reminds me of Dadaism in a way.

Actually, after reading the title and looking at the painting again, I do get something out of it.

It at least did what it says. So it can't be a dumb painting.

Not many art does that. How is the martyr doing? Making new art?

Don't know, but at least you don't have it laying around taking up space.

I don't see why someone would buy it, but art is subjective.
