This Week's Theme: Art

This week's theme is "Art":


My first thought when I saw this painting was that this chick is in serious need of some mousse. Talk about a bad home perm! This woman is probably rolling over in her grave right now. Can you imagine not only having a really bad hair day immortalized on canvas for a few hundred years, but having it displayed publicly for people like me to make fun of centuries later?

You crack me up! Not only do you find some great art but you make one appreciate their own hair even more!

Interesting hair style, definitely. :)

A lot of dresses in classic painting look distinctly uncomfortable, but this one looks nice.

It's got to be a wig. In that case, she isn't really to blame. Her mom or grandma probably forced her to wear it!

Thanks for stopping by my blog this week!
