“Well, this week's peeve might be... when art writers talk about an artist's 'efforts,' meaning their work. It always sounds patronizing to me, like 'I'll give you an E for effort.' How about the artist's 'effortlessnesses' instead? It's certainly something, or at least the appearance of something, that I aspire to myself.” GivingWellsArtMightArtistSoundEffortWeekAppearanceWorking ItAspirePatronizingPeeves Author:James Nares
