Fine art is just fine. These cartoons are great.

In this play on naturalist and ornithologist John Audubon's beautiful bird paintings, we see 6 paintings of birds from John's less talented brother, Merv. They are all just curvy Vs, each labeled a type of bird "in the distance."
I would go to this museum.

In this pun on the modern art of cubist Picasso, we see four of Picasso's portraits of women, all with tooth picks in their mouths - i.e. Tooth Pick-asso.
Plaques belong under art, not in teeth.

In this pun on Leonardo Da Vinci's "The Last Supper," we see "The Lost Supper," Jesus and his apostles sitting at the table with no food. It seems they ordered dinner online and the delivery info must have gotten lost, and everyone is hungry.
The spectrum of the emotions I experience when I’m hungry (sad, very sad, and angrily realizing I could’ve just ordered pizza hours ago and avoided this whole mess)

In this pun on pop art, we see a Roy Lichtenstein - esque comic woman looking at a can of cola. She is thinking, "People outside the Midwest call this... soda?!?"
As someone who grew up in the south, I always thought this was called “Coke Art.”

In this pun on American Gothic, Grant Woods' iconic painting, a goth couple stands in front of a farm house.
I imagine all produce from a goth farm is rotten.

A pun of artist Yayoi Kusama, standing in front of one of her iconic pumpkins, but instead of a woman, she is a macaw.
Let's hope the dots on this installation are not just bird poop.

A pun of Marc Chagall, where we see his painting "The Birthday," except the kissing people are seagulls.
Drawing this, I learned that flying seagulls are definitely less magical than flying people.
