Despite the kidding, those are actually pretty neat pictures. It's a good thing they have titles, though, because some of them are a little... opaque?
Delightfully contrarian, though.

My tongue got caught on my eye tooth and I couldn't see what I was typing.

Those are beautiful and weird. Wonderful use of bright colors.

the worker with the hammer in third picture down, reminds me of Freddie Mercury, who was lead singer with Queen.

The paintings remind me a little of Mark Ryden's work.

I'm not sure which is more unsettling - harvesting depleted oil wells with giant snake-eyed Mario and Luigi or the creepiest energy-spitting horse in the world. Excellent!

This one is amusing. It's ironical that Dom Quixote has become the windmill, and I like how the bird is warning the hare not to tilt at him.

I like the idea of creating new fables for a future generation to explain what happened.

I can't read German, but I'd absolutely *love* to have one of those calendars.

Anyone else see the irony of him using oil based paints?

I'd assume oil-based paints are linseed…
