Hey! It's Jesus' cousin Chuck

This picture was taken outside of Gallery X. The "artist" who did the Jesus poster on that video store has struck again and this time it's Charleton Moses who refuses to tell us how he got up on the side of that building. Personally I think he's worried about the ants going into his mouth.

Now that first Jesus photo bothered me because I thought it looked like a standard Jesus picture that had been copied and not drawn at all. Now I don't mean about it being a poster. We all know it's a poster. But I mean that it was someone else's work that was used and then just painted over. Like not even traced because the photo seemed like a familiar version of Jesus.

Now look here you can clearly see that this is Charleton Heston.

It's not some artist's rendering of Moses. It's not even a painting of Charleton Heston as Moses. It's a still from the film basically with extra paint effects applied to it. I don't know if it was done with a printer and then gone over. Or if it was done with big pieces of paper and one of those projectors. There's pop art and then there's poop art. You decide which this is. But although I may doubt whether Jesus or Moses are watching I'm sure Chuck Heston is on the job. Our neighborhood artist better hope they don't have guns in heaven.
