Acid Trip of the Day: Nine drawings by an unknown artist taking part in a government-sponsored LSD experiment in the late 1950s.
The subject was asked to draw a portrait of his attending doctor at various intervals throughout the experiment.
The fifth drawing, completed two-and-a-half hours after the initial dose of LSD 25 was administered, was accompanied by the following observation:

Upon completing the drawing the patient starts laughing, then becomes startled by something on the floor.

Compare with his final statement, five-and-a-half hours later, following portrait #9:

I have nothing to say about this last drawing, it is bad and uninteresting, I want to go home now.
