It's like fanfic, but paintings. It's futurefic, but futurepaintings. For example, Napoleon Crossing the Alps by Jacques-Louis David? This is what happens a few minutes later.

This is Edward Hopper's Nighthawks at closing time. Here is another one at the diner's closing time. This is Van Gogh's Night Cafe long after last call. This is the people cleaning up after The Last Supper. Here are Van Gogh's sunflowers a few weeks later.

They took pains to prepare the old lady for her big moment, but "Whistler got tired of waking his mother up every five minutes."

Transformative works hooray!

IKR? Webcomics and awesome blogs aplenty. My favorites are Strange Maps (http://strangemaps.wordpress.com/) and a street art blog called the Wooster Collective (http://www.woostercollective.com/). My wallpaper right now is from the latter.
