Caiman raptor elk - Inside big box, thinking.

My first impression was of a gold bearing rock, maybe bashed in. The implied unpainted condition proves false. (It being a painting). So the bashing probably didn't take place as well.

It looks to me like a forest in the Fall, when the leaves have turned orange and yellow, but have not yet fallen. The interior of the forest is kind of murky. Is something sinister lurking a few yards inside that interior? Or is this all some trick of the light?

Probably the sinister entity playing with the light switch.
Could be a left-handed entity trying to paint with the right limb/protrusion. That is what sinister used to mean, as in right and not-right. So if something doesn't seem to be right, it must be left (?)

I should probably enlarge the image as much as possible and then use a magnifying glass to look for any evidence of unicorns.

I don't think it's hard to find the Uniturds. All you have to do is go here:

I don't think you can compare the intelligence of six-year-olds and 65-year-olds. The two girls might be very bright for their age.
