Hi ! I've seen your art and it's mesmerizing ... it has a lot off signification in it . 😍 I have my point of view of what your art describe, symbolise and why is everything on it like that πŸ€” but I would love your point of view ... I mean if you are okay to give it to me ...πŸ˜… why you've done it lika that ? The signification for you ? Things like that πŸ˜„ Oh.!! And I have also a question is it a brain or a stomach the thing where the clown is sitting ? πŸ€” I can't decide ( but I think it's a stomach) . 😘

Thank you very much! This has been my most popular pic by far and keeps reappearing all over the net (my partner showed me another uncredited repost a few days ago). I've got mixed feelings about this - if I'd known it would get so much exposure I'd have put more work into it. When this image came to me I knew I wouldn't be saying anything new, but I thought it would be an interesting challenge and still find it darkly humorous.

The clown's meant to be in a stomach but I wasn't trying to make any great statement - it just seemed more appropriate!

I laughed so hard at this.

And then I remembered I literally have a McDonald's pink that says EAT SHIT

Then I laughed 10X harder

and fell out of my chair onto a thumb tac.

McDonald's is your kind of place. Β They throw food in your face, hot dogs right up your nose, french fries between your toes. Β And don't forget our chocolate shakes, they're from polluted eggs. Β (With apologize to Matt Groening's Life in Hell).
