Classical Art Memes Everyone Can Enjoy

And what’s more accessible than a meme?

You don’t need an art history degree to appreciate these 14 pieces of classical artwork, just a sense of humor!

1. To make a long story short…

…and then this man started painting my portrait.

This Fella Is Making His Neighbors Laugh With His Creative Fence Windows for Dogs

We all have to get creative right now with how we spend our spare time because everything we used to do for fun is closed for the foreseeable future.

I’m talking about concerts, sporting events, movies, etc. It’s a shame but for now, we just have to deal with it, right?

And a guy named Brian Stanley has been doing something I consider to be very worthwhile. Much to the delight of his neighbors, Stanley started The Dog Fence, which is exactly what it sounds like, but it’s a helluva lot of fun!

Stanley makes awesome, pop-culture influenced cardboard posters for his fence that also feature holes so his dogs, Burger and Ripley, can poke their heads through and make the whole neighborhood laugh!

Every few weeks, he updates the fence and shows off his artistic abilities. And it’s really a ton of fun!

Take a look at Stanley’s handiwork. We think you’ll be very impressed.

1. The Scream!

Do you recognize this painting?

2. Hey, what the ****!

You’re about to get eaten!

3. Jurassic Bark.

Doesn’t get much better than that.

4. The Dog with the Bone Earring.

This is perfect.

5. I want you!

To fill my water dish.

6. I can already hear the theme music.

It’s coming for us!

8. Weekly World News for the win!

America’s most trusted news source.

9. Behind the scenes.

He’s doing his job well.

10. A wide view of this great one.

It’s a masterpiece!

11. What will they do next?

Keep checking back to see what else they have in store for us!

What a cool project!

How have you been keeping yourself and your family busy during the pandemic and the shutdown?

Hilarious Photoshops That Are the Most Literal Things We’ve Seen Lately

Photoshop is addictive, to think we could create the perfect image, could scrub anything out or in that would make us or the image as a whole look better.

We should have learned by now, though, that any such requests given to Photoshop master Jamie Fridman would be met with extremely literal responses – they’re hilarious, and honestly, full of social commentary if you want to look below the surface!

13. Why are these creepy?

Nothing Jamie could do about that, I suppose.

12. That is one cute dog.

As long as we get to keep him in, I’m good.

11. Painfully accurate.

At least it was just in the imagination!

10. She should have defined “cool.”

Although he admittedly took it to extremes.

9. Stretching the interpretation of the term “people.”

But I see what he did there.

8. They’re wearing protective gear, too.

Very important.

7. He must be from Texas.

Or just a really big fan of Yellowstone.

6. Man, this took some skill.

I love it.

5. This is amazing.

It’s also funny, so gold star.

4. Well that was simple.

I want to see their reactions. Lol.

3. It looks like something out of a Tim Burton movie.

I mean that in a good way, obviously.

2. Notoriety comes at a price, you know.

But he probably meant VISITING a museum I guess.

1. Both of these pictures are downright hilarious.

I can’t decide which I like the best.

These actually made me think a little bit. How about you?

Which of them hit you just right? Tell us in the comments!

People Got Quarantine Tattoos and Here Are Some Good Ones

I personally don’t know why you’d get a Covid-19 tattoo, but, hey, to each their own, right?

I guess some people want to remember this unique and unsettling time in history in their own way and they’ve decided to permanently have it inked onto their bodies…

Like I said, to each their own…it’s your body and you can do whatever you like with it.

But some of these Covid-19-themed tattoos are actually pretty cool and inspirational! So let’s check them out.

Stay safe out there, be kind to each other, and remember to WEAR YOUR MASK.

Enjoy!

1. We can do it!

Yes, you can!

2. Giving 2020 the bird.

In a very creative way…

3. This is pretty cool.

And pretty creepy…

4. We’re in it together.

The whole world!

5. Wash your hands.

Or else…

6. Wow! Very creative!

I love it!

7. Paying respect to all the front line workers.

They are doing great work out there!

A Dad Uses Photoshop To Bring His Kids’ Drawings To Life

Kids have incredible imaginations. Their minds are always working, and they definitely operate on a frequency that’s different from an adults.

They also don’t always have the best execution; their motor function isn’t the best and they genuinely don’t care if they freak the adults in the room right the heck out.

Dad Tom Curtis decided to horrify the general public by using Photoshop to bring his kids’ doodles to life, and he posts them on “Things I Have Drawn” on Instagram.

Some of these drawings by his kids – 11 and 8 – are charming and delightful, and others will make you wish your own imagination didn’t run quite so wild, but either way, you won’t regret checking this out.

11. Ahhh the elusive dog-bird.

That dog looks as terrified as any dog would to find themselves up a tree.

10. What is this nightmare.

Why did he have to make it’s head different than its body different than its wings?

9. This poor hapless dope.

I want to give him some seeds.

8. Idk what kind of pig this is.

I kind of want one, though.

View this post on Instagram

We’ve done a couple of pigs before. (So we turned this into a wild boar.) ___ Hi everyone. So, it’s true – we cheated a bit with this one. In fact, I’ve done something naughty by showing the drawing in black and white rather than the beautiful pink Ally, the artist, originally coloured it in with. That’s right, this glorious 6-legged piggy was sent to us by Megan Farwell and the talented artist is her 4-year-old daughter, Ally, but with at least two pigs on our insta already, we thought we’d turn him into a cuddly wild boar. And Megan and Ally agreed! Could he be the pig’s long-lost furry cousin perhaps? ___ #wildboar #definitelynotapig #thingsihavedrawn #thingsihavedrawnatthezoo

A post shared by Things I have drawn (@thingsihavedrawn) on

7. Nope. Don’t like that.

Nightmare fuel. Is that how they see their Mum now?

6. That looks like it belongs in a children’s book.

The dolphins definitely don’t approve, though.

5. I love the birds.

And normally I hate birds.

4. Are we sure that was supposed to be a giraffe?

Maybe just a dude with a long neck?

View this post on Instagram

I know you might think that I’m having a laugh, Well I’m not – because this is an actual giraffe. __ Hello everyone. So we’re currently working on a couple of interesting new projects, but they’re taking a bit longer than I thought they would, so I’ve decided to re-share one of our earliest, but, I think, funniest animals – Dom’s giraffe. Actually it’s probably my favourite rhyme as well. We’ve not shown this exact picture on Insta before – this is the photo from our book ‘Things I Have Drawn at the Zoo’. By the way, we’ve started a new Twitter account. It’s very early days with no followers. There’s just a few of our old favourites on there so far, but eventually we might start previewing stuff on Twitter before it hits Insta. Check it out at twitter.com/thingsivedrawn if you like (it’s ‘I’ve’ because ‘I have’ was too long for the Twitter handle!) Oh – and we’re also on facebook.com/thingsihavedrawn for any older people out there. __ #thingsihavedrawnatthezoo #giraffe #kidsdrawings

3. That’s a pretty decent scorpion.

I’d give him a role in a horror movie.

2. Give this guy a role in a Goonies reboot.

You don’t even need a makeup team.

1. As if ducks weren’t scary enough.

This one’s mama took a liking to a heron, maybe.

 

These are pretty fun – I think I would have thought this was pretty cool when I was a kid.

Which one of these was the best, do you think? Let’s discuss in the comments!

This Mom Crocheted Skeletor and Xenomorph Costumes for Her Son

There are two kinds of moms in this world we live in – moms who make Halloween costumes from scratch every single year, and moms who run to the Halloween store the day of and pick through the leftovers for a $30 piece of plastic that will go in the trash later that night.

No judgement. I would be the second kind of mom except I have an amazing cousin who was the first kind of mom and she gives me her hand-me-downs.

Cleveland, Ohio mom Stephanie Pokorny is definitely the best kind of mom, because she gave her son not one, but two amazing, homemade crocheted costumes to choose from last year – one glow-in-the dark Xenomorph and one Skeletor.

I mean, look at this thing, y’all?

View this post on Instagram

Ready for #2?! XENOMORPH ALIEN! ? Jake's choice and he has been asking, no BEGGING, since Predator, so here it is! Absolutely so excited with the result! Suspended tail ready to strike, coils, spikes, spines, and that DROOL! Alien overload! Icing? HE GLOWS IN THE DARK! You so must head to my page for the video, I promise it's worth it! So… tell me what ya think!! ? . . About 45 hours of work, fully freehanded, NO patterns. His face sits inside the neck of the alien so he appears full body, but vision is clear! #xenomorph #alien #predator #alienvspredator #crochet #cosplay #halloween #halloweencostumes #crochetcostume #instacrochet @ripleysbelieveitornot #diycostume @comics_artuniverse #avp

A post shared by Crochetverse (@crochetverse) on

How could he not choose the Xenomorph?

It glows in the dark!

But then there’s Skeletor…

And those eyes, y’all!

 

(Side note: Do you think her son appreciates the work or it or is he like, rolling his eyes and wishing he could have a lame store-bought costume because kids always want whatever they don’t regularly get? I love nothing more than my mother’s homemade bread now, but as a kid, how I wanted a sandwich made on Wonder Bread, you know?)

So… I have no idea which one I would choose!

View this post on Instagram

IT'S COSTUME TIME!! ? Introducing SKELETOR!! Jack's pick this year and I am so excited my stomach hurts! He is fully freehanded, no pattern. Those eyes? They light up for an extra evil touch! Muahahaha! Want to see a video? Come to my page & see, it's so cool! What do you think? Happy 1st day of Halloween! ?? About 45 hours of freehand work for him ♡ All the facial details are top of head/forehead so chin down he is fulllll body scary; head up vision is clear! We live in Ohio so that coziness of crochet is always so welcome on brisk (sometimes snowy!) Halloweens! I adore doing this for my babies, thanks #skeletor #heman #costume #crochetcostume #instacrochet #crochetaddict #yarn #freehand #80skid #80smovies #halloween #halloween2018 #crochetverse #maker #diy #handmade #handmadeisbest #oneofakind #cosplay

A post shared by Crochetverse (@crochetverse) on

She says in her captions that she did the entire thing without a pattern, and that in total, the two costumes took her about 90 hours to complete.

We can all agree that she’s amazing, her work is priceless, and if she wants to make adult-sized ones this year, we’d all be in line, right?

Solidarity, Stephanie! And keep it up!

Artist’s Illustrations Show That Every Type of Woman Can Be a Warrior

We all know women are warriors, both in the actual and metaphorical senses of the word. All of us, even if we don’t look like Gal Gadot or Xena or Charlize Theron most days – which is exactly what illustrator Yael Nathan wants to show with her new series.

Big, small, old, young, we can all make a difference – just like the women in these 15 photos.

15. Just wear your backpack, little dog.

She’s carrying that big sword!

14. And with a daemon no less.

I’m a big fan.

13. This is pretty much a flawless drawing.

The woman, the cat looking at the audience. *chef’s kiss*

12. The hair and the fierce expression.

Like wine and cheese, my friends.

11. If only my arms looked like that.

The juxtaposition of her holding a bunny is amazing.

10. Women supporting women.

Now and forever. Grab the sword.

9. You know this woman.

And chances are you’re already afraid of her.

8. When your dog is fancier than you.

But you can both kick a$$ if need be.

7. You definitely want this lady on your side.

She’s got quite a story to tell.

6. The expression on her face is important.

I love how there’s someone out there who loves seeing themselves in a picture.

5. The silent worries she carries.

I wish I could know her tale.

4. A woman with a crow is one to be feared.

They are wicked smart.

3. Happy AND fierce.

Just like her duck.

2. I love this older lady.

She’s definitely got the wisdom.

1. She’s polite, but she does what needs doing.

Like every woman everywhere. Except for the polite bit.

I’m feeling empowered and excited, how about you?

Which of these is most like you? Representation matters!

This Artist Creates Adorable Felt Cats With Big Personalities

We can’t get enough cats, and this Russian artist gives us one more reason to rejoice!

Elizabeth Delektorskaya’s felt kitty creations are the stuff of “aww!” They look like they could come to life at any moment, not as real cats, necessarily, but as their big-eyed, animated counterparts (think Puss and Boots from Shrek.)

The kitties come complete with precious whiskers, little pointed ears, and sparkling eyes that reveal their mischievous and loveable personalities. Delektorskaya has added accessories, including matching scarves and collars, giving each cat a distinct character.

Some look like they are ready to play with a massive ball of yarn, while others give the distinct impression they just want to cuddle. Whatever their choice, it’s fine by us.

Delektorskaya, who hails from Severodvinsk, Russia, creates these adorable kittens from 100% natural sheep’s wool and a unique dry felting technique. Depending upon their complexity, and how much of the kitten she’s making (just the face or the whole body), she spends anywhere from 3 hours to 7 days on one piece.

She wants people to know that, although her felt four-legged friends are cuddly, they are indeed fragile; they are pieces of art and should be handled with extreme care.
