I recognised the ' Portrait of a Woman by Filippo Lippi' as the starting point for one of these images. I wonder if 'Portrait of Sigismondo Pandolfo Malatesta by Piero della Francesca' is the starting point for the image above.
I don't know how Keith does what he does but I admire it! Beautiful fishy work and words that are like riddles that take us back to the dark ages.
Look at the stamps and the pink puffer fish!
Beautiful work and sorry I am slow to blog.
Thank you!

Dead-on for both paintings; works by Filippo Lippi and Piero della Francesca. As you stated, starting points. There's more of Lippi's work still there than that of Francesca's original composition. Yes, I'm a pirate of art history; plundering my way to a good lampoon . . . regarding how I do it; a lot of work — the writing, illustrations and production on this set took a lot of my time, but I definitely enjoyed every second of it. And yes [!] I'm tickled that mentioned that "feeling" of the dark-ages [Medieval period] as that was where I was heading with this work and found my voice for silly words.
