I gave this valentine to my biology professor whom I have a huge crush on. He LOVED it! So spot on. Thanks 14!

THIS IS NOT NICE,TO SAY SUCH MEAN AND ANGRY THINGS ABOUT THESE YOUNG LADIES,I THINK THEY'RE CUTE,THEY HAVE BEAUTIFUL EYES.

[Shaz]

Wow that's so creepy and awesome at the same time. Ugh I can't stop looking at them. Wait now I can, so creepy.

[Jacquie]

You have captured chimps and the haunting quality of marykateandashley beautifully. Love your art. J

Holy shit, that gallery of Creepy valentines scared the living blue shit out of me. I am going to have nightmares tonight. Love the inspiration behind this portrait, and any comparison of the Olsen twins to primates.

[Viper Tetsu]

The only reason Tim Burton bypassed the li'l primates for his remake of PLANET OF THE APES was likely 'cos they cost too much. Thanks for answering some movie trivia, BTW: Now I know where the makeup geniuses got their inspiration for Helena Bonham Carter's chimp makeup in the movie.

These Valentines are so deliciously warped, you could draw 'em all damn year. Seriously.

I remember when Full House started. The older two girls were cute and talented and I looked at that baby, Michelle, and thought, "What an ugly child!" I wondered why the producers couldn't find a more attractive baby (babies) to cast and I wonder now why anyone, anywhere cares anything about the simian little Olsen twins! You Go, 14!

[Sassy]

Oh my gawd....they really are monkeys! I freakin' knew it!

[Damien Morgan]

I think we need to start taking DNA samples from celebs, I'm guessing they are actually a unique sub species of the human race. They seem to only be able to live on shameless publicity, and only seem able to mate within their own species. Ahhh the Olsen twins would prove to be great test subjects.

[MWUBW]

I actually think they look like miniature versions of Cameron Diaz, which isn't really any better.

Hey 14, is that your real name?...hehe

[Dawn (webmiztris)]

Jesus, it really looks just like them!!

[Greg]

And I always thought the Olsen twins looked more like troll dolls--another creepy '60s icon.

[Demon Kitty]

They do look like Monkeys. They look exactly like Monkeys. I have no idea why these bitches get so much fucking attention. Mary kate looks like hell when she wears those shades that take up half her face. Suffering from an eating disorder and a coke addiction doesn't help either.

So Much Love,
Demon Kitty

LOL it's so true.....

[Evil T]

I think any animal with human eyes is creepy, which is why this works so well. About the only human looking thing about these two is their peepers. Happy Valentines Day, 14

[DonnaJEM]

Hehehehe Ooohhhooohhoohhoohhoo!!
Hilarious! Chimp-like is the only way these two should be drawn.
Another brilliant creation from our dear 14.
Now Go Get some sleep honey!

[Penname]

LOL. Wow. Love this one. Love the "puzzling" valentine more. Oh I just love when a man threatens murder and violence. So sexy.

[TheIdleReceptionist]

Wow...its a miracle anyone got hitched at all in the 40's and 50's.

[Monsieur Licard]

Little known fact: the subspecies "Olsen Twin" is completely unrecognisable when travelling alone and not in twin formation. Sightings of a single Olsen have left observers wondering "who is that ugly girl and why is everybody paying so much attention to her?"

[Bucky da ANIMAL]

DOPE and ironic too considering what we were talking about.
