Sorta Cool Things that are Actually Gross

I don't like birds. It's their feet/talons. They also seem cold and without personality. Gives me the heebie-jeebies.



So it's not a big logical leap to assume that I don't like Artist Guido Daniel's body painted images of birds. Amazing detail but still tickles my gag reflex.




And it's only his birds. I really like this one of the elephant. Mammal to mammal. Are elephants mammals?



But what about the reverse? Pictures of animals (dog) anthropomorphized with human features. Ummm. No. Don't like it. Can't trust a dog with human eyes.



One more thing to illustrate my point about bird feet:



A gold-plated pendant cast from a chicken's foot.
