Item Description
Large 18x39.25" Aqua-oil painting on canvas w/wooden support frame. Painted by Mark Arminski in 2001 for the Detroit, MI. area Dirty Show, an "International Erotic Art Exhibition" that started as a small art show above a gas station but has expanded over the years to included performers, burlesque, etc. Arminski created this piece to have more of a fun, freakshow vibe and wasn't designed to be erotic or filthy but instead amusing. Art was done in a style reminiscent to the old freakshow banners and depicts "Miss Jenny Talia," a nude woman holding a large, snake-like penis in her hands. Text at bottom reads" She Has A Penis Where Her Ass Is! and "Alive." A banner design at top lists her name and large sperm cells radiate from her head, almost like beams of light. At lower left of image area are two stamped blocks w/stylized "M" and "A" kanji initials, Arminski's signature when he does art that is of a more commercial nature. Exc. A wonderful, whimsical image hearkening back to brightly lit circus/carnival midways. From the Mark Arminski Archives and comes with a COA specially designed, signed and remarqued by him.
