I meant no harm Painting

For a contest themed ‘new worlds’ I made my complaint against our consumer society. I named it ‘I meant no harm’ referring to Dr Seuss’ Lorax. I painted it with oils on the wooden top of an unsold side table discarded by a major European home decor company. A tree was chopped down to make this table, for it to be immediately added to a trash pile. In my ‘new world’ people finally see the error in their ways and worship and protect the lonely trees that are left… The edge of the table top serves as the frame of this artwork. A small hook for hanging is attached to the back.
