Default Look at the short haired fairy...

Ok, MAYBE it’s just me…let me know what you think.

On the smaller purse with the two figures, look at the one on the left. Is something intimate going on?

I mean, doesn’t that look like she’s hugging a being to her torso and its weird hand is around her hips and there are two more fingers emerging from her upper back? The fairy’s right knee is in the creature’s neck/shoulder area.

My husband looked at it and totally agreed!

THAT said, not really a fan. I am now wondering if some designer at Prada said “hey, let’s see if anyone catches THIS”!

Now I know I'm not that crazy, I just checked out the artist's 17 foot by 200 foot Prada piece on his website. You see the more of a picture, with more of the creature's hands and body.

Have a great Monday, all!

One thing for sure, the artist must have done a lot of drugs. That's not the only "suggestive" part of that painting/drawing.

Does anyone know how much this one retails for? Thanks!

Skelly - can you please post the link to the artist's website?

Here's the first "out and about" photo I have seen of this bag:

Thanks to "Shopping.." for originally posting this link:

www.jamesjean.com

click on "Work" on the left hand side, then scroll to "Prada" and you'll see the original, complete 17 foot by 200 foot piece, including more of the image I was talking about.

Very Alice-in-Wonderland, very Pink Floyd (The Wall)

Have a great day!

Thank you Skelly & Shopping...I really love his artwork. Not sure if I want to carry it around on a bag, though...

Restricter - aren't you gonna post some photos of your bag!?!? Would love to see it...especially if you can capture the sparkle!!
