response to Hornby


I really like the description of the school trip which is totally different from watching paintings in the gallery; for example, “I stood on the edge and loosened a few with my foot”, it recalls what I really like doing when I am young and excited memories. The painting “Nipple Jesus” he mentions is kind of tricky and funny when he relates the painting to himself, “People regard me as an exhibition, too”. I like the writing style of this article. “I hated the picture then. Two minutes ago I’d like it, now I hated it”, which intrigues me because when I read this first, I am really confused first but I am surprised about the reflection of the man has.
What I don’t like, or could say what I confuse here is why the author writing about so much about lives of the man, how awful his jobs before, and even after many pages the author then mentions the main topic “Nipple Jesus”, what kind of relationship between those things. I can't accept the description about the painting "Nipple Jesus", how could Jesus is painted by million nipples, which is kind of make me feel disgusting if I see the painting. “I know what my talent is, my talent is being big”, in the article, when I see that, yeah, the man have deep thinking, but I don’t like this sentence in the paragraph; it kind of implies the man is trying to avoid the real facts and this is just an excuse for him. This sentence is kind of misleading from my view.
