Detail.
Needed to do a painting of H.o.p. and the wooden alien. I may do another.
If there was anything that struck me as curious at the museum it was the alien heads set among greenery. You can see one on the right in the larger view. I don’t remember if it was plastic greenery but probably was. Anywhere there was greenery there were alien heads sticking up out of the leaves.
You can also see in front of the alien head shown here a sculpture of the “Thinking Alien” that someone did.
They’re going to be building a new UFO museum. Plans up on the wall there behind the registration desk. I wonder what will happen with this old theater? Maybe some enterprising person can come up with the Roswell Incident Musical and present it at the theater year-round. This is, after all, New Mexico’s biggest tourist attraction.
P.S. I loved the UFO museum.
