Cupcake Gothic

OK, so I really hate this painting for some reason. By "this painting" I mean the original, American Gothic. It always freaks me out. I look at it and wonder "what the hell! why aren't they happy? And why are their faces so long?"
So I did a quick, five-minute sketch of a cupcake gothic. It looks much better. and yes, I know the pitchfork goes in the middle, but it looked weird when I sketched it out that way. 
And now I got a great idea for my envelope today! I also have to download the past two weeks worth of envelopes to my computer, so everyone can see the difference that really good pencils make in my artwork. My envelopes are ten times more impressive!
