Still Life With Fruit, Game, Vegetables and Live Monkey, Squirrel and a Cat - created by nicehotcupoftea
Still Life With Fruit, Game, Vegetables and Live Monkey, Squirrel and a Cat (circa 1637)
Artist: Frans Snyders
Apparently the fruits and animals have symbolic meaning, eg. the monkey represents evil
I chose this painting because it just looks bizarre (and I like a challenge!)

Reminds me of the Restaurant Scenes from the movie Orlando, whoo hooo
author says:
Haven't seen that one, but Babette's Feast came to mind!
Drivenslush says:
The Cook the thief his wife and her lover LOL (Orlando is more of a Twilda Swinton vehicle) LOL

My Acorns... My Life - created by George55
Even in difficult situations, survival is a must. Squirrels that were born midgit and without arms or hands, had the ability to feed themselves, this is the case of this cute, shrunk, squirrel, just look into his ( is a boy )..I think so.... eyes, and see his desire to be alive!
Thanks to the following artists from morguefile for the beautiful pic of the squirrel ( xandert ) and the acorns ( mrmac04 ). Thanks to Monarda Fistuosa, from flickr, for the pic of the oak tree leaves. (5 years and 2718 days ago)

Great entry, check the link for your third source it's not working.
author says:
Yeah, thanks for comment, I checked link, it is working now.
Drivenslush says:
he got quite the shnozzle LOLOLOL
author says:
Thanks Driven...lots of fun!
CMYK46 says:
Good idea, but he doesn't pop from the background a lot, and the perspective of the background makes it look like a wall of acorns. Suggestion: make the background more red & give it more blur. Just my idea...
author says:
Hope it looks better now....thanks Bob. I was waiting for a suggestion on the background.
Cassar says:
maybe some perspective to the background before aplying CMYK46's tip would help also, other than that i really like it. good job.
author says:
Thanks Cassar.

The lighting and shadow on the chair do not correspond with the lighting of the background. Consistency counts...
its more matching now, maybe. thanks for comment
you can still see the walkway in the chair
problem is done. thanks for comment
