Comfy looking chair. I wonder what it was used for. Dentist? Very interesting hole in the wall. Looks like something out of a Road Runner cartoon. And how did a dinner plate wind up on the seat? It's mysteries like these that makes exploring these facilities so fascinating.

That is so weird. Everything on the little guy are facing one way and his arms the other.. You have to think that he was drawn this way on purpose.... but why?? The art is too good to think that it was just a mistake.

It looks in a way poetic how the paint crumbles. A very beautiful pic, very silent and calm.
