"After the Pequod: Moby Dick's Later Years"
Sri Rhadapadaman Padarhadamom
Herman Melville's classic tale ends, as we know, with the death of Ahab, the sinking of the "Pequod" and the rescue of Ishmael…. After 10 years of meditation he had freed himself from the wheel of reincarnation and his previous sins of the shedding of blood, and from that point he lived as a holy hermit in a nearby sea-cave, where he became noted for his wisdom and kindly temperament….
"Unhappy Man Fondling a Mallard" Henk Tulusletrack
...In the subject painting Tulusletrack captures the essential sadness of a Basque farmhand engaged in the seduction of a local mallard. You can almost hear the soothing words as the man caresses the waterfowl while fantasizing about "les cruches magnifiques" of his faraway love, the milkmaid Marta. Ducks are a common erotic surrogate among the Basques, particularly when the quadrupeds are locked up or going steady with other agrarian laborers.
"The Ill-Sighted Dentist" Jan San van Ham
Using a miniature easel and tiny brushes, he was often able to surreptitiously record medical atrocities as they happened, without the knowledge of either the victim or the practitioner.
"Saint Francis on Ecstasy" Joe Ballooni
….Jamaica agreed with Ballooni, and Rastafarianism provided both spiritual direction and the bomber joints that inspired him to produce works like "Dude! Where's My God?"
"The Lester Children Find Mommy's Happy Pills" Judy Lester
According to the story accompanying the painting, the artist came home one Saturday afternoon to discover that her children, Hansel and Gwendolyn, had found a bottle of Valium in a dresser drawer and had not only taken several of the tablets themselves, but had dosed the family cat "Guntrum" as well...…. The fate of the cat is unknown
"Young Girl with Noose" by Jan Vermineer
Saddened by what he saw as desecration, Vermineer fell into his Depressionist phase, where his young, now fully-clothed maidens are caught in the act of offing themselves through a variety of methods. "Young Girl with a Noose" is the first of this series, which also includes "Young Girl with a Suicide Note," "Young Girl with a Jug Probably Filled with Strychnine," and the lost masterpiece "Young Girl with a Handgun," also known as "Tapestry with Wide Red Splash."
"Still Life with Prozac®" by Vincent van Gark
...he soon became intrigued with what he called "the innerspace light show" provoked by different combinations of readily available chemicals. He turned to art as a way of recording and expressing these "mind-bending" experiments, which he was unable to otherwise articulate….. His experiences with opium led to the "Whoa! Sunflowers, dude!" period…
