Things go to crap for Vladimir Putin
You will all recall the story of King Midas who wished fervently for gold and got it — everything he touched turned to gold — everything. Well, now something else is turning to gold — and that something is — shit.
Per the New York Post, it would appear that Putin has been reduced to a punchline. The angry and murderous dictator who wants people to fear him and tremble at his every word has been reduced to — poop. Putin and shit do go together rather nicely, do they not?
Dominic Murphy is an artist. And he wanted to show solidarity to the Ukrainian people as well as raise money for their plight. He also wanted to give a big “up yours” to Putin. And he managed all three of these things with a portrait — a great big, beautiful portrait of Putin himself. Made out of dog poop. Doggone it, that’s good!
Speaking to the Welwyn Hatfield Times, this ingenious artist explained he wanted to do something to help.
“I thought if I could paint something that is relevant to the conflict, and that could grab some attention, I could produce some prints and give the profit to those in need,” he explained.
This work of art costs $52.66.
The magical dog poop came from his own dog. And because this artist channeled his creativity, he managed to avoid having the portrait smell like — well — shit.
He mixed it with mud which took away the smell. What a guy! This enterprising artist is planning to use the proceeds as a donation to UNICEF. We thank him and his dog for their inventiveness.
