Earth Forgotten

This is a very early piece of mine, I call it Earth Forgotten. This is a reflection upon the changing seasons and beauty of nature but then, how we desecrate and destroy it. How we all take earth for advantage and how one day we will only destroy ourselves. I will point out a few factors about this image, to begin with the sun in the top right corner, no longer as bright and beautiful as once was. The grass style brush used for the main body of course reflecting on nature. This is like a Meadow, from season to season, we see bright green grass, to the spring and autumn colours. A few scattered black pieces are dead grass, linked to the black dot i shall explain soon. The large orange gash, a very dominant part of the image, this is an industrial "cut" into our world - this is us, cutting through the beauty and stamping our mark on what should be left alone. A small black dot in the bottom right area, this is poison. poison which we inflict via factories, cars and other means.
Most images of earth being ruined by man are dark, and show the sinister, but here I am remembering that its still a beautiful place to live
