Episode 1: "Ahoy mateys! Kreeft is landlocked today, and will be guiding your way! Artsy farsty art is what we'll be looking at today, rolling with the hoi polloi and like a rock gathers no moss, we'll be rolling along and along. There's plenty to see, look, a squirrel! Oh my, look at that cute tail! Where was I? Oh yes, art. Yes, it's all about art today. A hedgehog, too? Why, isn't this the cutesiest tootsiest widdle thing? What? Can we begin the tour? Why, of course! And what are we touring today? ART? In an art gallery, why, of course it's art! Who's the guide? ME? Heh heh heh, of course it's me I was just seeing if you were paying attention!
All right, let's go!"

Episode 3: Utterly Ridiculous is a huge fan of black and white art, black and white photography and even black and white etchings. Utterly Ridiculous asks Kreeft the name of this evocative work of art, and Kreeft replies Saturday Night Diva. Utterly Ridiculous gets it. Sort of...but Utterly Ridiculous is not convinced that the name does justice to the level of artistic skill evident in its composition or execution... Kreeft just winks to the other members of Utterly Ridiculous's tour group, knowing full well that art that unsettles those pets that view it will be remembered...and thought about...for generations of pets to come... In other words, a success!!!

Utterly Ridiculous and the tour group all fall in love with this work of art, and have to be dragged away from it by Kreeft, because there are still lots of pictures to view!

Episode 5: Breaking dawn clearly portrays the sights and smells of sunrise on the marshes. One only need close ones eyes to instantly bring to mind the distinct smell of still water and flora and fauna, the call of the wild ducks in flight, cheering others on, and the joy of being alive.

Episode 6: Utterly Ridiculous squeals with delight at receiving a beautiful print of Iben’s Stonehenge, an inspiring modern rendition of the well-photographed natural wonder visited and pondered over by pets and their hoomans for generations.

Episode 7: So many things going on here, subtle nuances, and full of whimsy and alarm at the same time! The artist begs the viewer to speculate on whether those bees are friendly? A smile can be used as a ploy to get close, and close they are! Upon further examination, you can see the artist used unusual media and style choices to bring us the affable dog who might be in danger! Adding the cat on the painting gives the viewer a visual reference on how this might all go wrong. Please take a moment to view and enjoy this masterpiece, charmingly titled Bee Wear

Episode 9: "This pop culture icon is sure to bring a smile to any true patron of the arts, and will certainly become a valuable classic" Kreeft gushes ecstatically.
Utterly Ridiculous wonders cynically if the lobster is a little biased on the subject?

Episode 10: Geometric Red Dress
From the Pauli Hoh collection
Hey, chaps and chapesses, this divine little frock shows us just how important triangles are. We couldn't do without this versatile three-sided shape in everyday design, and clothes are just as important as buildings or bridges! Remember Pythonagoras’ theorem from school? The one that goes “The squirrel on the hippopotamus is equal to some of the squirrels on the other two sides”? What’s that got to do with the price of onions, did I hear you say? Well, never mind—just look at this dress: a thing of beauty and a joy forever. It’s a striking and pleasing colour combo of scarlet and purple, with a border of autumnal flowers around the hem. The whole thing is set off with a beautiful floppy red bow linking the shoulder straps.

Episode 11: "The delicate whimsy in this piece has inspired me to paint my own masterpiece!" Kreeft exclaims triumphantly!
Utterly Ridiculous is fascinated by the beautiful work, but can't get quite as excited over Kreeft's painting of catfish playing cards. Maybe it's because he painted it on black velvet?

Episode 12: "Entitled Attic Teddies, this composition by one of PnF's many talented artists is very popular" Kreeft explains.

Episode 13: "Girl With a Fish is an excellent example of realism" Kreeft explains stiffly. Utterly Ridiculous can tell that his little lobster heart is not in it as he describes the scene. Maybe the fish was a friend of his?

Episode 14: Moonglow is an evocative art work, suggestive of another land, another time, and another place. Utterly Ridiculous muses on how cleverly this has been depicted! With the wrong moons. The wrong coloured sky. The wrong style of buildings for out in the countryside. But all of those wrongs do make a right! Utterly Ridiculous can't wait to go home and tell Dad all about it!!!

Episode 15: Kirsten’s Rainy Encounter was inspired by a series of oil paintings by RL artist Leonid Afremov. The Rainy Encounter series uses the play of vivid colours reflecting off wet ground and through rain to soften the image and create depth perception. Utterly Ridiculous jumps up and down in glee at receiving a print of this beautiful scene, because they really, really want their hooman to make an art with it and put them in it, so they can splash in the puddles and dance in the rain!

Episode 16: Kreeft presents one of the Musee's more colourful contemporary pop art pieces for Utterly Ridiculous and the group's viewing pleasure.

An interestingly modern take on a Christmas tree, for sure!

Episode 17: "Dandelion Dreams is a lovely display of minimalism, showing the delicate and transitory nature of beauty," Utterly Ridiculous read from the plaque on the wall. Utterly Ridiculous would certainly look differently at the "weeds" growing in the yard from now on...

Episode 18: Utterly Ridiculous and the tour group raise eyebrows, well...those pets that actually have eyebrows pretty much raise them...as Kreeft clears his throat. Utterly Ridiculous is not shy, so Utterly Ridiculous pipes up and asks "is this really art"? Kreeft sighs...a l-o-n-g suffering sigh...and patiently explains that art is an expression by the artist that creates it, and an interpretation by the appreciator that views it. Nothing more! Nothing less! And more importantly, art IS FUN!!! Utterly Ridiculous actually has some junk in Inventory, and promises to compile A LOT of it for the next weekly art challenge, grudgingly admitting that it will probably be fun to do! Kreeft would have smirked in response, if Kreeft actually had lips to smirk with!

Episode 20: When Kreeft begins espousing the talent of the artist that conceived this piece, a few of the less mature members of Utterly Ridiculous's tour group grin behind their paws. No matter, because Utterly Ridiculous is lost in thought, admiring the little space tadpoles landing on GJ1214b, a water world planet that is entirely covered by ocean!

Episode 23: Gentle Giant is a refreshing look at a character whose appeal is unmistakable, and provokes a warm response from the casual observer.
Art critics have suggested an underlying theme of questioning the age old stories of beanstalks and giant killers, but thus far the artist has not chosen to confirm or deny this speculation, leaving the art to speak for itself.

Episode 24: Kreeft explains to Utterly Ridiculous and the tour group that this piece of pop art, created by one of PnF's up and coming artists, depicts American hard rock band Guns n Roses.

"Art and music are both in the eye of the beholder," Utterly Ridiculous thinks, before moving on to the next piece...

Episode 25: After viewing all of the inspiring works in this section of Musee d’Art de Cannelle, Utterly Ridiculous is feeling a little sad to have to return to a gourd house that looks exactly the same as every other gourd house in PnF Land, which is not terribly exciting...because if you've seen one gourd house, you've seen them all!

But suddenly Utterly Ridiculous stumbles upon a funky house, which looks very similar to one in a Picaso masterpiece....
"A present for me?" asks Utterly Ridiculous, hardly daring to hope!
