Anti-fur statement for my Biology Final.

I don't like seeing animals killed JUST to make expensive clothing.

[Mixed media - 8"x6.5"]

Suggested by . Here's what she has to say and I totally agree with her. :)

"The piece has a strong message in it.
The detail is astoundingly dead on and Mirroreyes did a good coloring job.
The message is harsh but,as us all being human it should make us feel what the artist is trying to get through. That killing an animal for its fur to make clothing is just a waste."

an awesome idea to get a point across.

xoxsnoof Says:

Great message.

It really gives a creepy air seeing a human as a piece of clothing, but it's exactly what humans are doing to animals.

Aramis Says:

It's beautiful. Love color and technique

Sgt Nelson Says:

*O* this is awesome, really!! I like how you put us in the animals shoes. Love it

Rafica Says:

awesome pic, i totally agree w/ u!
i won't even buy from a store that has predator skin (even if it's not for clothes). prey skin (deer, elk and the likes) i don't have as much a problem with because it's the predators that we're killing off

SilverShadowBlade Says:

Very nice way to get the message across

Rapture HalfaFoxgirl Says:

I do believe your the first to actually draw this.
I love all the detail and your coloring.
Like Silver said,its the best way to get the message across.
It may be harsh,but so is killing an animal for furr clothing.

FyreNWater Says:

creepy, but it's true! if only people would pay attention to what they hurt just to look "pretty". after all, fur looks best on the animals they belong to.

avaunt Says:

Wow . . . the detail is astounding, the art beautiful, and the message powerful.
Fantastic.
