'Art has to move you and design does not, unless it's a good design for a bus.' — David Hockney
A painting by Australian artist Brett Whiteley has fetched $1.68 million at an auction in Sydney.
Arkie Under The Shower, a study of the artist’s daughter, was one of several Australian works to go under the hammer at the Deutscher-Menzies sale.

Update: It appears Photobucket deems Whiteley’s masterpiece as an affront to common decency and have removed the image. You can see Arkie Under the Shower on the ABC News website.
