Mystery Painting of your own

Last week, we hunted down the creator of the Mystery Paintings nailed to telephone poles in Lower Wallingford. The creator has added an offer that we thought you wouldn’t want to miss, reproduced here in its ALL CAPS GLORY:

RANDOM PUBLIC ART

NOW WITH PUBLIC PARTICIPATION!

EIGHT (8) PAINTINGS ARE AVAILABLE *RIGHT NOW* AT THE SOUTHERN WALLINGFORD PUBLIC DISC GOLF COURSE AT 3631 BAGLEY AVE

PLEASE COME TAKE ONE (1) AND NAIL IT TO ONE (1) TELEPHONE POLE SOMEWHERE IN WALLINGFORD

THE NAILS ARE ALL READY TO GO IN THE FRAMES…YOU’LL JUST NEED A HAMMER

PLEASE SELECT A POLE THAT ISN’T IN A DISRUPTIVE LOCATION (OR IN FRONT OF AN UPTIGHT PERSON’S HOUSE WHO MIGHT TAKE THE PAINTING DOWN RIGHT AWAY)

*** VERY IMPORTANT *** WHEN YOU NAIL THE PAINTING TO THE POLE, DON’T POUND THE NAIL IN TOO FAR SO THAT THE HEAD RIPS THE CANVAS…STOP WHEN IT’S EVEN WITH IT

BUT IT’S NOT A BIG DEAL IF THAT HAPPENS…THEY’RE JUST PAINTINGS

THE SERIES, IN CASE YOU WONDERED, WHICH YOU PROBABLY DIDN’T, IS ABOUT THE GENESIS OF LIFE IN THE UNIVERSE

YOU PROBABLY COULDN’T TELL THAT BY LOOKING AT THEM

IF YOU TAKE THE LAST PAINTING, PLEASE ADD A NOTE TO THIS PAGE SO PEOPLE DON’T BOTHER COMING OVER FOR NOTHING

BUT IT WOULDN’T BE NOTHING, REALLY, SINCE THERE’S ALWAYS DISC GOLF TO BE PLAYED

THANKS TO WALLYHOOD FOR HOSTING THIS SITE

VIA L’ART PUBLIC!

As of this weekend, the creator added:

LAST CHANCE!

PLEASE COME PICK UP A PAINTING OR TWO TODAY, MONDAY

IF YOU ALREADY GRABBED ONE, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO TAKE ANOTHER

ANY PAINTINGS REMAINING AT THE STROKE OF MIDNIGHT WILL BE GIVEN A VIKING FUNERAL ON LAKE UNION

As much as we love viking funerals, we love art that keeps on living, so get on down there!
