Unusual Images

These were left on the wall after the clothing was removed from the hooks in my burned out art studio. Wanted to capture them before the walls are repainted. I think they're kinda cool. (BTW, these are color photos.)

That is pretty trippy! Good eye for seeing art in a strange occurence.

But I don't see Elvis anywhere!

I wouldn't repaint that....in fact, I think I'd tape it off, repaint the rest of the room, then throw some kind of a frame around it.

I actually thought about that, but it's very fragile and unstable. Worse than charcol, in fact.

I tried, but the air from the spray disturbs the dusting, and the weight of the laquer pulls the dusting down. It's very, very fragile.

Wow, freaky! The images on the left and right look like dogs hanging by their heads. What do you guys see?

the Virgin Mary ... start a roadside attraction!

neocaster · April 29th, 2008, 12:57 PM

Start another fire, spray sooner this time???

morroben · April 29th, 2008, 12:58 PM

Could you lay some kind of clear contact paper over it? Or just a pane of glass? There's got to be a way to save it.

Boy, I wish there were. But it's just too much trouble, and also in an incovenient area of the studio. So I'll just let the photo's suffice.

I am saving this, however:
