Naked Mannequins Covering Stuff

I found these two naked mannequins and I'm not sure what they're supposed to be doing.  It looks like they're ashamed of their nudity, and that's a good thing.  Not that I'm offended by nudity, for the most part.  I just think naked manikins are creepy.

Train Saint

On a recent trip to Thessaloniki I came across a most interesting sight at the train station.  Now this train station had all kinds of normal things you might find.  A snack bar called the "Express", a store with overpriced chips, and even a fast food place that ends up looking much more appetizing than usual because of its surroundings.
But this train station also had a little church built in.  That made me wonder, is there a Patron Saint for Train Travel?  A quick look on the internet told me that this saint does not exist... yet.  But I understand that new saints are inducted all of the time, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Kids Should Smoke

Nothing says keeping kids safe from the dangers of the world like taking a ride on this Camel's Cigarette themed kids ride.

Signs I Like

Don't sweat it Mr Blobby head guy, everything will be alright.
The sign isn't really impressive, but the idea of my nails being happy seemed pretty cool.
I can't decide if this image is disturbing or cute.
You had me at poop on a fork.

Creepy Or Educational?

All over the Athens Metro many of the stations feature some of the archaeological discoveries they've made while digging out the tunnels and stations.  Sometimes they even have them in the same place where they found them, such as this kiln that was around when Jesus was still alive.  There is however one artifact that I think could be the creepiest Subway/Metro decoration in the whole world.
At Syntagma station they have a dead guy.
Sure he's been dead a while, but it's still really creepy.

I'm Feeling a Little Odd Today


Maybe not as odd as this, but it's the best example I could find of a video representing my mood.

I Need a Really White Canvas

I'm working on a new piece for my "Senses" series and for it I need a really white canvas.  I decided to paint over an old painting, but even after many layers of primer and paint, it's still not white enough.  Time to pull out the big guns, and by big guns I mean, MORE PAINT!

Signs I Like

I've seen this kid plastered all over buildings in Athens, I just don't know who he is.
It's a bunch of little birdies.
I like puppets, unless they're scary puppets, then I don't like them so much.
