Hey there! I've gotta say I really love this piece! And I remember looking at it a coupe of weeks ago in the :iconprojectcomment: folder, which is cool because that means it stuck out in my memory!!! I love how its taken from a dream, those kinds of pieces always have the best surreal feelings about them :D

You are extremely talented with your use of lines, they aren't really all that different but the amount of textures you achieve is really amazing! I can really clearly define the tree's leaves from the clouds, and sometimes i feel like I can't even do that with my colored pieces XD. As to what is going on... I have no idea! It's very unsettling... it looks like a body is coming out of a water fountain, so it's just kind of suspended there and I can't help but imagine all of the decay and disease that is going into the water! All those poor bunnies!! :XD: That, or its just a sculpture, but there is something that is more appealing to me about the morbid option... more impactful I guess :)

I'm also really curious about the scroll on top... it reminds me of the metal bands that old music boxes/ hurdy gurdies used to play music on. So when looking at the piece I think of some little children's song playing in the background, which makes it MORE disturbing! Funny how the minds works. I don't really have much to critique on, the best surreal pieces are the ones where you don't know what's going on and you did a great job with THAT! And the simple lines are great too, like a Matisse... if it was spurting blood all over the place I don't feel like I would have had the same uncanny feelings. cool!
