    My wife swears this is nothing but ugly, but eye of the beholder and all that...

    this is a canvas, plywood, metal hoop and paint mixed media piece

    it's 31" x 23" (and 2" deep) and was purchased at an auction in Washington state, US. The auction house had no info or provenance on it. There's no signature on it.

    I welcome any opinions on it, including if it's the ugliest thing you've ever seen! Thank you.

    I'd be thinking someone aimed it at the trash can and missed. Sorry not sorry. I've seen better-looking drop cloths.

    Well if I were keeping it I'd probably pull off the wood bit and finish stretching only the hoop.

    To each his own.:)
