And it tastes great, when prepared by a good chef.
 
I think it is the creepy tentacles AND the suction cups. I will gladly forego my share and let others partake. That's the kind of generous gal I am.
 
A couple more before and after photos of our latest restoration at Staglieno Cemetery in Genoa, Italy. This is the memorial to James Fletcher, who was the U.S. Consul in Genoa in the late 1800's. His wife and one daughter died there during his service, and later he also died in Genoa. At the base is an American eagle and the Great Seal.

It's an amazing place. If any of these were in museums they'd be centerpieces of the collection. Instead, they're in a cemetery on the outskirts of a commercial and port city, so they are almost unknown.

A tragedy in itself. But then sometimes harvesting the sculpture out of it's intended place, destroys some of the works integrity. It takes away the vision of the carves. Because usually they are carved for a reason and for that specific place. If that makes any sense. I know composition plays a large part in my art. :)
