[Art] Punishing Strawberry Fields Forever
#1
This is based on something I saw in the movie "Across The Universe" during the song "Strawberry Fields Forever"

It's based on a Beatles song, but this art is more just based on the way that the fruit of life is generally destroyed through its own creativity.
The sewing needle represents creativity, basically, stabbing life in the heart.
The Strawberry is actually drawn by hand with a reference (I bought some strawberries) and has a limited ammount of colours, The spatter on the shading is supposed to represent blood spatter (or juice, in this case) and display the shape of the fruit better. Although I think it just looks like I did a crappy job shading it.

Anyway, here it is.

I made it mainly to be my new background Tongue
Tsunami Bomb - The Simple Truth
We could run away
Leave behind anything paper
Not knowing where we're going to stay
When there's no Mondays

You're part of me, it's so easy to see the simple truth
When I'm in your arms, I feel safe from harm and sorrow too
You're part of me, it's so easy to see the simple truth
But most of all, nothing couldn't be solved when I'm with you

The drawing is very good, in fact when I first saw it, I thought it was a bitmap trace. I like it how the blood splatter isn't too vivid or dark a red, maintains it's purpose without drawing too much focus.

I think it's wonderful.
That was my favorite part of that movie.... That canvas of strawberries.

Nothing more or less useless than imagining that there is more to be done. Recall: no matter what is new there will always be these hands and these sandwiches. The enlightenment came and went and sliced bread was our creation— the best to be had. There can be no avenues of intellectual discord. We will always fold our food and put it into our mouths, long after our bodies forget what to do with it.
