So my roommate bought this simply amazing piece of rape art at a Good Will on Saturday. "What is rape art?" you ask? "That sounds wildly inappropriate" you may mutter... whatever... get a grip. Pictured below is our rape art... that lady is clearly trying to get to the door, which that dude (with seriously ripply calves and amazing pyjama shorts) is locking...

| THIS IS RAPE ART!! |
If this were a polytich the next several frames would be... upsetting. Certainly not PG rated. FORTUNATELY it is not a multiframed progression so it is completely acceptable to hang on the wall in our salon.
Now... this painting was an obvious no-brainer at Good Will prices but Melissa didn't realize the true creepiness of this piece until she got it out to her car and looked at the back...

| Oh poor Lisa... |
Yep... as if a painting of an impending sexual assault wasn't disturbing enough, "I'm ganna kill you Lisa" is scrawled across the back in terrifying serial killer handwriting. Leads me to wonder what type of girl this Lisa was, and whatever happened to her. What did she do to so upset the previous owner of this piece of art? Hopefully she's not dead in a 60 gallon barrel somewhere in East Haven...
ANYWAYS! That is the excitement from the weekend... except when the musicians took up residence.
Having people play music on my front porch was exactly what I had always hoped it would be like. It gave me hope that one day there will be spring time and porch drinkin' and scaring the neighbors with our honky music.
In closing... here is a tiny picture of a tiny dinosaur eating a tiny city that I just drew.
On this day of freezing weather and crazy children, I sincerely appreciate learning about 'rape art'. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteMelissa says we should fill the house with a rape art collection. I don't think other pieces will be as interesting without death threats scrawled across the back.
