What Would Mona Paint?

What would Mona paint? Cubism, obviously. I think the real opposite of the Mona Lisa is probably something more like Jackson Pollack, but it was just too much fun to give her a Cubist Alter Ego, Re-Mona. :]

"Makin' the best of every virtue and vice.
Worth every damn bit of sacrifice
To get a cheeseburger in paradise"
-- J. Buffet


I thought and thought and thought for a more 'serious' take on this week's word, but nothing came to mind...well except maybe Eckstein making a well-timed sacrifice bunt for the Cardinals...but nothing had any kind of visual hook to it. And then, my man Jimmy dropped the perfect image right into my ear, and the rest just flowed. Guess the cousin of the "Sticky" lizard felt like dropping in for a cameo. :]
