We interrupt your regularly scheduled Artzine to bring you this late-breaking update, and we regret to inform you that there have recently been some unfortunate developments in Ms. Chapman’s art career.

Firstly, she was caught red-handed fastening a bra onto a horse belonging to one of the Cowboy Artists of America. She refused to comment at the time, but it appears that Ms. Chapman has probably joined the Women’s Art Liberation Front (WALF), a terrorist insurgency group whose main aim appears to be to disrupt the annual CA show and emasculate its members (or their horses). Apparently, the WALF group believes that paintings by female artists should be accorded the same worth as those of male artists. Clearly, radicalism such as this cannot be tolerated.

As representatives of the fine government-sponsored group Fighting Against Terrorism - Artists Supporting Society (whose acronym is best left unprinted) we find Chapman’s actions reprehensible in the extreme and we are seeking punitive action against this outlaw artist.

However, we are having some difficulty tracking down the aforementioned fugitive from justice. We have just one clue to go on:

This suggests to us that Chapman is trying to cover her tracks - and perhaps make up for her past sins - by hiding out in the Thomas Kinkade workshop. Although we might expect she is joining as one of the workshop’s fine canvas ‘highlighters’, the image shown here suggests that, once again, her misguided sensibilities are running amok.
