  1. Not what I would want on my wall, which doesn’t mean it isn’t well done, just that I wouldn’t want it on my wall.

  2. Good image for Halloween!

  3. I must say the artwork, per se, is pretty darn good. But why do these artists so often paint such unremittingly bleak and horrific scenes? I suppose they are easier, in a sense, just like it’s easier to write a sad song than a happy one.

    We humans are strange creatures!

  4. That is some mural.
