What does the lady in this painting have in her lap?

It’s great! It’s either a guitar or an ass depending on what you decide to see it as. It’s exactly like that woman/vase drawing, just less presentable.

It’s me, and I’m holding one of my corgis. That was before I changed back to my natural hair color.

The thing is I’d swear I’ve seen this before.

Giant, giant boobs.

Not hers; someone else’s.

The head of Alfredo Garcia.

Or Chicken Alfredo.

Not sure which.

I have to say that it looks like it’s probably a Guitar. But the above responses are a LOT more fun.

It could also be:
**A very large cheesecake in its side
Prince Albert, in a Can
A small Millstone
The Spare Wheel from Fred Flintstone’s Car
The original film reels of Star Wars
A Really Big Tinker-Toy, Before the holes are dtrilled into it.
St. Joseph’s Aspirin for Paul Bunyan

I went back to the site I saw it on, to see if the artist had other paintings of women with guitars, giant fruit, cheese, or severed body parts.

Originally, I saw it in the “paintings” section. But on the item details it says it’s also listed under “musicians”. So, I guess it is a guitar.

Here are the details. Try to refrain from clicking the “critique this art” link. :slight_smile:

So yes it’s an artist. I knew I’d seen it before. Probably when I was looking for lady in red as a search.

I thought at first it was a Frida Kahlo painting. She did some ugly stuff.

Pregnant mandolin.

OK. Looking at it while thinking ‘guitar’, I can see a guitar. But up until then it looked like a bread box.

Yes, I’m old enough to have seen one. It’s what people used back before bread came in plastic.

The angle is what fools, because you expect a guitar to be bigger than a bread box.

It’s a guitar made from a wedge of cheese.

She has actually been impaled by a speeding cheese wedge.

It’s 14 k of g in a f p d

I think it’s Shannon Dougherty spanking someone. Yeah, like she wasn’t the bad one.

At first I guessed a pillow but given the “musician” crossreference clue, I’d agree with guitar, but if it were held at that angle I would think the tip of its neck would show behind her back.

Given the pictogram in the lower left corner, and my intitial guess, she seems to be Japanese or other Oriental.

By the way, the handwritten note on the lower right corner says, “LADY (???WITNESS??? or someone’s name perhaps) IN REALLY UNFLATTERING DRESS”.

Judging from the expression on her face, it’s gotta be a wheel of over-ripe limburger cheese.

Clearly, Pac-Man’s trying to go down on her.

The most striking thing is that she appears to be sitting on thin air, when there’s a handy chair just a few feet to her left.

But then the title would have been “redlady with cheese”.

You know you are right it would be better.

Perhaps protruding through her back.
