Artist's Comments

These days it looks like we have fallen on some pretty hard times. Will our hardships soon call for desperate measures?

----------

Thank you for all of your comment, they are very much appreciated. As I have gotten a few request to make prints for the particular piece available, I will be submitting a higher quality image soon to make that possible.

Bird of the future by ~bolduke A delicately rendered pencil piece whose message is quite powerful and quite tongue in cheek. (Featured by ^oilsoaked)

I like the idea, it's funny but also with a serious thought behind it.

And the drawing is perfect :)

Yeah definitely a little of both. That's kind of the feel I was going for. I think it was important to capture the beauty of nature, and then scare everyone a little bit by bluntly showing how we are putting it a stake.

I also like how you've taken such a delicate creature, and made it seem like it's had to go through a war. Having learnt to defend itself from us?
Lovely concept.

This is so touching, and so sadly true. I live in the city and I always think how birds must feel surrounded by so much noise and contamination... in such an alien environment. Anyway, I particularly like the sharpness of this drawing.

Very impressive work - I don't think words alone can express how I can relate to this image.

BTW, guess that the image can do a little cropping, the bottom edge where a black line is seen can be trimmed. :)
