Help me identify/find a vintage "art" for my Mom
Recently my parents remodeled their house a bit, and my mom and I were joking about what to put above the fire place. Her grandma had a painting of a waterfall landscape that was back lit with some sort of spinning shade to give the water fall motion.
She was very surprised that I remembered it, and mentioned how much she loved it. It would be very cool to find something like it. It would be a bit tacky for her designer home in her new grand living room, but she would like it for the bar area. Any idea of what to search for? I don't even know the name of the style to begin searching.

Good grief. How 'bout a velvet Elvis painting? I could grab you one next time I'm in Nogales.

Tacky... you say that like it's a bad thing...  Definitely would be a great addition, and I would bet would garner more comments than most other pieces of art... everyone over 30 probably has a memory of one in a grand parents house... If I stumble across one somewhere, I will let you know. Initial search of ebay and google didn't turn up what I recollect from my youth, but I'll try to remember to check periodically.

I have a number of tacky prints and a horrendous painting of a barn, all hanging up down there. After I picked up the dogs playing poker print, my wife and kids have decided to see who can find the tackiest picture next for me to hang...it's a game they play.

It seems like everyone loves Clowns and Sad Eyed Children.
 At least this this ***** scared a lot children during my childhood. Why should today's children get a reprieve? Huh? Oh Dear God!.... the Nightmares are starting again............

Dude!! Clowns scare the hell outta me, always have. They are NOT allowed in my home. When my wife and I moved in together, right before my move to Utah, she sold off her collection of ceramic clowns because I told her it was the only way I'd marry her.
No way, no how...no clowns!
