The Sand in the Vaseline from Ed Ruscha is the name of a work of art. Ruscha produced the piece by painting the words "sand in the vaseline" in egg yolk on gray satin. His goal in producing the painting was to evoke feelings of confusion in the viewer. When asked about his motives, he responded, "Isn't disorientation one of the best things about making art?"
