I hope you're serious. This is a good idea. David Lynch (the film director)
is also a painted, and a lot of his work features natural items in various
states of decay. He incorporated either a dead bird or dead rat into one of
his paintings, it was stuck to the canvas by paint. I had a bruise on my arm
once which stayed for several weeks, and changed colors, displaying
beautiful yellows and purples. I considered the idea of photographing it
each day, but never got around to it.
I do not remember the artist's name, but there was one guy who was inspired
to be a painter when he first saw a medical book of throat diseases. He
thought the colors of the various pustules were the most beautiful he'd ever
seen.
