Anyone who has a bio as good as Flounder, also known as Scott Scheidly, has to rock. Thankfully, his artwork does too.
His pieces are basically messed up fairy tales, if I had to sum them up. Titles like "Alice in Blunderland" and "Prophecy of Frank" all add to the fairy tale theme. He also does a pretty good Last Supper parody, as well as pieces that comment on modern politics such as his "$6.66 a Gallon" piece and "Global Warming."
