Woman Who Ruined Fresco Now Wants To Be Paid

[vta]

Comedy gold...

Cecilia Giménez, the Spanish woman who really messed up when she tried to restore a 19th-century fresco of *****, now wants a piece of the action from the 2,000 or so euros ($2,600) her church has collected from tourists coming to see the ruined artwork.

Someone should pay her a lump sum to never touch any art supplies for the rest of her life.

I know I shouldn't, but I cant help but laugh at her rendering of the art work. It looks similar to an ewok. Instead of hair, he has a round lion's mane thing going on, and huge lips. Plus the almost solid black eyes, and the lack of the beard.

It almost like the lady had no idea what the original artwork looked like.

It is almost like the lady was completely unqualified to retouch the artwork. Oh, wait, she was unqualified.
