Still life with weapons, Russian-style

Found this, figured it'd inspire the inner artiste when y'all take pics of your AK (and other) builds.

Nature Morte
http://backspace.com/notes/2009/07/nature-morte.php
Gustave Caillebotte, a key patron of the Impressionists, inherited his forturne from a supplier to the French during the Franco-Prussian war. The CIA promoted Abstract Expressionism. Tobacco pusher Philip Morris sponsors art and dance. It increasingly seems that, as the saying goes, “behind every great fortune there is a great crime,” and behind every big name artist is a great patron.

And so I enjoyed this series of para-military sill lives.

now daz art!

I've seen a period B&W photo circa 1943 europe. Has a P-38 in a beater home made shoulder holster hung over the back of a chair, a stained black suit coat on the other side of the chair back, a hand torn loaf of bread, small jug of wine with what looked like a jelly glass half full beside it, and a spilled leather bag of loose tobacco. It really didn't look staged, just like somebody noticed these things looked good in conjunction. 'Prolly some artistic frog.
