Remember Jack?

I don’t know about you, but I used to love the Deep Thoughts segments on SNL. Back in my SNL era (Sandler, Farley, Myers, Hartman, Nealon, Rock, and Spade) it was as good as anything else on the show.

Well, thanks to the New Yorker I have found that love again. This time out in the "Shouts & Murmurs" section, Handey gives aspiring artists ideas for paintings. And if sold he will take “approximately all the money.”


My favorite:
Stampede of Nudes
The trouble with most paintings of nudes is that there isn’t enough nudity. It’s usually just one woman lying there, and you’re looking around going, “Aren’t there any more nudes?” This idea solves that.

What has frightened these nudes? Is it the lightning in the background? Or did one of the nudes just spook? You don’t know, and this creates tension.

Other examples can be found here.
