Artist's Comments

Anti-fur statement for my Biology Final.

I don't like seeing animals killed JUST to make expensive clothing. I hope they used every part of that human. Waste not.

* Received Third Place honors at the 34th annual Student show at the Art Institute of Ft. Lauderdale.

Mixed media - 8"x6.5"

For the record: I'm not a vegetarian. I'm not a vegan. I'm not against the use of leather since I eat cows, and to encourage the discarding of their skin would be hypocritical. Unless your sitting at the computer in one of your many mink coats that you wear to feel rich and important please refrain from flaming me for threatening your way of life.

Also, I will NEVER join Peta.

Daily Deviation

Given 2008-01-29

Whether you're for or against fur clothes or not you have to admit *mirroreyesserval draws an interesting idea in Faux Fur, so it got featured today with a Daily Deviation because it's both visually appealing with a clever way to deliver this message.

A lot more tastefully done then most anti-fur protests I have seen, which go more for bold shock value rather then tastefully subtle statements. Bravo!

Beautifully done.
I love the fox's expression, and how you drew his paws. Amazing job on the ears, as well.
I love the subtle approach...it gets the message through without being harsh or overly-cruel. :3

I have to agree. I think the only time it's apropriate to wear fur is when you need it for warmth. And even then, there is Faux fur that works just as well.
