Slag 'n' sludge do have rather excellent decorative values in the right situation.

Dirt Piles & Slag
"...back in the day, the entire valley used to have its own unique cachet... ...weird colored random piles scattered here and there... ...often contrasted by fluffy low-lying smoke... ...it made for a certain je ne sais quoi... ...then, sometime in the '70s or early '80s, they started the clean-up... ...so they hired students, planted grass on the slag piles and started printing tourist brochures......ruined the whole dang thing..."

Richmond Fossil
Richmond Fossil - a painter's tribute to 1 billion gallons of toxic coal sludge spewn into the environment on Dec. 22 08.
The unique quality of these paintings is that they may address a sombre topic, however they are visually compelling and possess a vitality that indeed celebrates the natural wonders of our planet.
