 This is four different images: the heads, the paw and the scene. The house and barn are both little models from cardstock. I copied a tiny bit of the siding/roof from the painting image then used the Redfield action 'seamless workshop' to duplicate the tiny bit. The sky is one of my pictures just printed out and placed behind the scene. Here is the original setup:

And for those who don't know the painting, you can see it here.

Really well set up. The original painting is, of course, one of the most parodied paintings - even Kermit and Miss Piggy have done it. ;-Þ

This is hilarious -- I bet a cat lover would love a series of prints from these

You really should have a coffee table book with all these images, or greeting cards, as they are just outstanding, each and every one of them.....

Wizard lighting on orange haired farmer/orange haired farmer's expression. Agree somewhat with thelobster about comparison with original, which I had not thought of as surreal til now, but this is MORE surreal.

curious how many comments you've got about how funny/cute/adorable this is. Personally i think it is slightly more disturbing than the original. good work.

This makes me smile, and that's quite an accomplishment in today's face-passed, stressed-out world. Glad to see you back at it!

Bloody hell Colleen - where on earth did you get your imagination from??? I don't normally like cat images, or cats for that matter and usually pass them by without comment but this series is certainly giving me a bit of a chuckle.
