These hysterical illustrations are the result of an unlikely marriage between Rowan Atkinson's face-pulling and history's most iconic artworks.

Rowan Atkinson is pictured gurning, smirking and grinning as his face replaces the dour smile of Leonardo Da Vinci's Mona Lisa and other classic masterpieces.

The Blackadder and Mr Bean star has been included in OVER 30 different portraits – which its creator says can take him between three hours and TWO MONTHS to photoshop.

Atkinson-enthusiast Rodney Pike, 52, is the man who has BEAN photoshopping his comedy hero into the classic portraits.

Mr Pike – who caught the Mr Bean bug while living in the UK for three years during the 90s – says that carefully blending Blackadders' gurns into a revered artwork is "good therapy".

He said: "First of all, I love art and especially the Masters.

"I think it just adds to the absurdity when working with such serious source material and Rowan Atkinson can make any situation funny no matter how absurd. 

"I now have a collection of over 30 now.

"He's always lots of fun and it is good therapy and a welcome break to the stresses of work sometime"

The illustrator – from South Louisiana, in the United States – started photoshopping Rowan Atkinson four years ago.

Mr Pike said: "The one thing I make sure I do on these fun pieces is to do just that, have fun and learn along the way.

"This kind of work is where I develop new techniques and experiment with Photoshop".

Hilarious article written by Charles Novia

I just attended the wedding reception of President’s Jonathan’s daughter, Faith and her husband, Godswill. I am sure most of you saw it live on television but I just might write a behind-the-scene review of what happened in the hall which you could not see. I might write that later.

Halt Proceedings And Allow Me Have Sex – Man Begs Court

Nhlanhla Khumalo from Bulawayo, Zimbabwe, who claimed that his wife had denied him sex, caused drama in court when he begged the magistrate to halt proceedings and briefly allow him to have sex with his wife.

He said the "quickie" would subsequently stop him giving himself pleasure.

Khumalo apparently justified his demands to turn a courtroom into a bedroom saying at home his wife, Sithembisile Khumalo, has turned their 12-year relationship to that of a mere brother and sister.

In a bid to draw the magistrate's mercy he produced a yellow cloth which he
