I’ve this large portray I purchased second-hand years in the past.
It’s a print on canvas known as “Earlier than Dusk” and once I first noticed it I used to be like, “I really like how ambiguous this portray is” and the man promoting it was like, “Yeah, why is she catching a hen in a marriage costume?” and I used to be like, “Oh, to me it seems to be extra like she’s going to free the hen from the guilded cage however has been caught within the act by most likely the identical one that has caged her and she or he’s questioning if she ought to fly away too” and he was like, “Huh. Perhaps?” After which I stated, “Or possibly she’s going to eat the hen as a result of she’s hunched over it like a predator and she or he seems to be a bit of like I do when it’s 3am I’ve been caught in entrance of the fridge with a burrito I’m not imagined to eat” and he stated…”I’m not sure-” and I stated “Like possibly she’s a vampire and she or he’s actually hungry and she or he’s already murdered everybody and needs dessert? Or possibly she’s some sort of moral monster and she or he doesn’t need to eat the individuals she’s with on the social gathering however she’s determined so she sneaks into the bed room to eat their parakeet however then she’s noticed by the imply girlfriend of the man she likes and she or he’s like “Aw fuck” and is attempting to determine if she ought to make up an excuse or simply eat the girlfriend?” And the man was like, “I don’t…um…what?” After which I supplied him half of the worth he was asking and he took it, and Victor wasn’t certain if it was as a result of I’d baffled they man or if he was now afraid that he was promoting some form of a haunted bird-devouring vampire portray.
Aaaaanyway (out of ADD meds, sorry) we moved a number of months in the past to a smaller home and I lastly discovered a spot for this portray however then I observed that there was what seems to be to be blood splattered and smeared throughout this portray.
And I began questioning if possibly a homicide had occurred when our previous home was on the market and Victor advised me I wanted to cease watching a lot Dateline and that it was most likely simply eating regimen code so I simply took footage in case a detective wanted it later after which I began scrubbing the portray however the blood (?) was not coming off and I used to be like, “OH THIS PAINTING IS DEFINITELY HAUNTED.”
However then I did a reverse look-up of the portray to see what it was imagined to appear like with out all the blood and seems the blood is a part of the unique portray. Or possibly it’s not blood and it’s burnt umber paint added to offer it environment? Or possibly it actually is meant to be a vampire assault and I used to be choosing up on all the refined clues? Or possibly the artist was murdered as she was ending the piece and by no means had an opportunity to wash it? Or, extra doubtless, she spilled her eating regimen coke on it and was like, “FUCK IT I GIVE UP. JUST LEAVE IT”?
Anyway, I don’t have an ending for this however I assumed I’d ask your opinion about what you assume this portray is about and in addition say that for those who haven’t completed as a lot as you needed to at the moment, at the very least you didn’t spend an hour attempting to wash an artwork piece that’s imagined to appear like that after you took footage of it in case it was proof of a homicide that by no means occurred.
