hopefully this is not a double topic, the search didn't show anything close except random images, but this one is not for random, whatever the genre might be.

let's start with fun.
Vasya Lozhkin - painter from Russia, famous for his absurdist dark humor, evil old ladies and cats.

Comfortable feeling.

Most anything by Robert Rauschenberg especially when we was around "The Irascibles" those New York abstract expressionists. Having very little money for the ordinary materials an artist would utilize, he used what ever he found on the street or trash. Or buying deeply discounted unmarked cans of paint and making do. His conceptual works are among the greatest of the 20th century with his "Erased de Kooning" along with Duchamp's "Fountain" as the 2 greatest examples.

Evil Message or the Last Sermon of Stringy Meatwinger. 2018. Oil on canvas, 380 cm x 550 cm.
painting is an illustration to the story:

In spite of efforts by Trian the Great to calm down and regain control over the meta-situation, the performance of the Imitators was increasing with each passing moment. Materialization of Holey Moon's frightening twin was now unstoppable. Total despair overwhelmed Flatheads. For eons they had followed and observed the Laws and Teachings of Stringy Meatwinger. But now the obtuse Flatheads had to witness the consequences of Trian's fateful negligence... their nostrils already sensing pungent stench emanating from a burning Orbital Lighting Egg that had fallen into Trian's lap. Flatheads finally realized they will not be destined to experience the promised eternal bowing in misty wetlands of the Paradise. "Oh, I overdid again," Trian thought chaotically. Is this really the end of it all? Of Skeiners' hexagonal duckings? Of newly built and elegant deworming hangars? Of clacking howls of Fish People during layered sunsets... and himself, the almighty Trian, the Materializator of Ameliorated Worlds. Wayward Rare-earth Retflesh, whose swelling, budding and blossoming had been eagerly awaited by whole of Sweater's habitat, was stunned feeling the imminent calamity, purpling insecurely. And now, Fish People did what Ancient Scrolls of The Elders of Fish People commanded: "On the day when another frightening moon will emerge, You shall climb the highest tree; Then you will let go and fly, with divinely beautiful thoughts, into the Blackest Hole. There, a new Antiworld will await you in its dark radiance". Above and below it all, senseless prayers and teachings of Stringy Meatwinger loudly echoed in complex structures of the Skeiners, like a lonely goat's song in a mountain cave.
