You’re looking at a 1990 painting by Claude Harrison titled “Magic Skateboard” that sold at auction by Christies for about $4,500. Claude Harrison was a member of the Royal Society of Portrait Painters who lived from 1922 to 2009. He painted straight forward portraits, but he eventually developed a sort of fetish for harlequin figures. So this is Magic Skateboard, but it’s not this magic skateboard.

That’s magically gay. Not that there’s anything wrong with that (besides the distended front half of the skateboard, which IS so wrong).

Who in the world would want a painting like that? Bizarre…
