   I love this painting! I saw it once I think at LACMA? I also have it as a fridge magnet which is strange but delightful. I find it very comforting.

   Makes me want to write a kind of abstract, surrealist book in a light tone with lots of scenery, flowers, naked people, and starfish–starring Madonna, a cock, and a bull.

   Can we add Maritime narratives and Kia dealerships to this list?
