About the Column

Disney images inspire artistic interpretation. That's a mouthful! It means that the web teems with artwork of Disney but not by Disney. The artists of Arthouse Disney are hand-picked for their creative, sometimes quirky, but always masterful interpretations of classic Disney art, iconic Disney scenes, or familiar Disney characters. Each column has an introduction by Bob McLain and often a few words from the artist. But it's not the words that matter so much here as it is the pictures.

Pirates of the Caribbean

One of the iconic scenes from the Pirates of the Caribbean ride is the three jailed pirates attemping to coax the key-bearing dog closer to their cell. In this contest of wits, it's the canine who proves superior to the cutthroats. Josh Pincus captures it perfectly.

In today's edition of Arthouse Disney, Josh Pincus presents his take on a scene familiar to anyone who has boarded the bobbing boat and glided through Pirates of the Caribbean.

The pirates have attacked the town and seem in control, but of course, they must pay for their evil deeds, and so as the ride winds down, several of the brigands wind up in jail.

Freedom is a mere turn of the key. And the key, as luck would have it, is held in the maw of a mongrel. But this mongrel knows all the tricks, and no way is it giving up that key.

Artist Josh Pincus captures the humor in the scene. His pirates look none too bright, and the dog clearly knows it. Will this stand-off continue forever? Likely so...
