Description:
This picture has been on the same wall downtown since 1986, and it wasn't until I stopped to photograph it that I realized:

The artist responsible for it really has no idea how perspective works.

It really does shock me how some of the best "cartoon" artists out there draw cars so horribly and out of proportion/perspective...

...I'm the complete opposite... I can draw cars reasonably well, in proper proportion/perspective, but can't draw anything biologic or even "cartoony" to save my life.

I'm better at machines than organics, but, better at landscapes than machines.....

Reminds me of the '50s drive-in theme painted on the walls at a local McDonald's. Although the cars are pretty easily identifiable, most of them suffer from this same perspective-warp, some worse than others.

Also, one subject in the painting (who seems to be Asian, from her face) was given jaundice-yellow skin, which is just disturbing.

#5, I didn't. I found that on a wall somewhere in the Mission District in San Francisco.

#6, I was more upset at you LINKING back to it... I know you can at least draw better than that, and I say that with confidence having never met you face to face!

Reminds me of this towel I've had for about 100,000 years
http://www.flickr.com/photos/993824...528458/sizes/k/
it used to be blue

#11, Ah yes, the one element of perspective that's tried and failed more than any other...... FORESHORTENING!

Yeah, cars were big back then, but they weren't as LONG AS 18 WHEELERS!

Well, our long national nightmare is over. Those cracks at the bottom finally reached the top and the whole stucco facade fell right off the wall, "picture" included.

Good riddance.

hahaha. Wow, this reminds me of those horrible Joe Camel ads from the early 1990s.

#11, You know, I can tell that the top and bottom cars are loose interpretations of a 1959 DeSoto and a 1959 Cadillac, respectively, but I can't for the life of me figure out what the middle car is supposed to be.
