HASIL ADKINS: LEFT OF PAINTING
The decapitated heads of various girlfriends. “I’m gonna cut your head off and put it on the wall, so you won’t eat no more hot dogs.”
 
Chicken walk ghost — a reference to his song “The Chicken Walk.”
 
Marlboro, his favorite brand of cigarettes.
Hasil’s ramshackle home in West Virginia (the image is in the shape of the map of the state) Hot dogs: Hasil’s favorite foodstuff.
The tomb of Colonel Sanders. The one religious pilgrimage Hasil made in his life was to the grave of Colonel Sanders, because he likes his Kentucky Fried Chicken so much.
Hasil and his mom.
Hasil’s cat, Boo-boo (the subject of one of his greatest songs).
Hot-pants Hootchie-Kootch girl. The only social phenomenon Hasil ever wrote about was hot-pants.
