The Most Horrid Picture Ever Painted.

Global Paw · 01-25-2005, 08:50 PM

This picture was sold on ebay in 2000...many emails were sent in during the bidding describing passing out at the sight of the painting, or being visited by "old hags" in the middle of the following night...I think it looks pretty creepy myself..

The painter created the picture in the 70's, and laughs at the notion that it is haunted. I don't believe it myself, which is why I'm showing it to all of you.

I live in Marfa. I'm used to really weird art. That doesn't scare me! LOL

Weird. Hope a hag doesn't visit me. I've heard about her. She's NOT nice. lol

Yeah, the first thing I thought of when I read that was Coast to Coast AM

Yikes, look at all the little hands in the window. I wouldn't want that hanging in my house.

Ok the artist must have been on some good drugs! LOL That is one strange picture, I wouldn't want it in my house either!

flyndog · 01-25-2005, 09:06 PM

Well, I'm going to bed now. I'll let you all know what happens. If you don't hear from me for awhile, it's because I'm being visited by the hag and gone quite mad. :shiver:

He says the little boy is a representation of himself at age 8, and the hands represent different stages of his life.

Quincy I still say it he must have been on some good drugs! Why else would anyone create such a strange picture! LOL Ok maybe he wasn't but it is still a strange picture!

Oh, I agree that it is a strange picture, yet I will debate the need for use of recreational drugs to create art.

sunny98 · 01-25-2005, 09:16 PM

NO Debate Please! LOL I agree one does not need recreational drugs to create art! Some do and some don't so I will leave it at that.
