Michael Jackson as you’ve never seen him before

Would you want this painting hanging on your living room wall?

Michael Jackson looks freaky enough just as he is. And yet, the images from this creepy art gallery manage to make him even scarier. And this stuff is for sale. Hurry, while supplies last. [via boingboing]

Uh, are those things supposed to be thorns, as the INRI suggests ?

At first look I thought they were stiches and that this was some kind of Frankenstein’s creature (which makes sense considering the singer’s plastic surgery history).

Interesting thorn-scratch placement. I’ve always been led to believe that Jesus had a crown of thorns placed on top of his head, not on his shoulders, knees, or crotch — or his nose, though maybe that’s just from his latest “Extreme Makeover.”

Check out the gallery. The ones where Michael’s with the children are especially disconcerting.

I would say this is bad Feng Shui.

Cheers!

Well, here’s a defence of her – she paints Jackson because she thinks he brought so much to the world. And, Michael is loved in Europe, especially Eastern Europe (the artist is from the Czech Republic).

If you take away the accusations of pedophilia, he really is a talented artist (forget that R. Kelly was allegedly filmed piddling a little girl, and his career is still going strong).

She does paint other things, and all-in-all she seems talented.

Just, damn, those Jackson paintings give me the willies!

She does seem talented. I still don’t want her stuff in my living room.

The paintings are amazning and wondeful! Terrific job to the woman who painted them!
Michael Jackson is only creepy to those who are judgmental, and prejudice of other people on the way they look. I think Michael Jackson looks cool, and even perfect. Ignorance and primative ways will always seem too continue too go on, but so will Michael Jackon.
