Downtime Uncommon Art With Dummies

This one is for anyone who has ever stood in front of a famous painting and wished it were a little weirder. Fifty familiar compositions are rebuilt line for line, brushstroke for brushstroke, with every human figure quietly swapped for a blank-faced crash-test dummy. The poses hold. The clothing holds. The drama holds. Only the cast has changed, and nobody in the scene seems to have noticed. Coloring it means dressing history's most recognizable art in your own palette while a room full of dummies stares back with total indifference, which is funnier than it has any right to be. Art lovers will enjoy the recognition; everyone else will enjoy the absurdity. Either way, the joke never overplays itself, and the paintings never stop looking like paintings.
