MVO1:An abstract artist admits anyone could do it. Hello, I'm Simon Fitch and this is the Daily Focus. Dutch abstract artist Janik Davidson has for years heard the tireless refrain: 'My six -year old could do that.' Well today Davidson not only confirmed this fact but announced today that anyone with enough energy to dump onto a canvas an slop it around could do exactly what he does.

MVO2:Kindergarteners, chimps, the elderly. Even certain chickens. All of these have the skills required to create flawless reproductions of my work. Really. I have very little discernible talent. I'm ashamed for my family.

MVO1:Davidson says he does plan to continue painting but wants to focus his energy on a new movement he’s dubbed, ‘stuff people actually recognize’ And in a related story, researchers at Lipton have discovered a natural substance in tea called L-theanine, which promotes clarity of thought.

ANN:Lipton Tea. Drink better. Think better.
