Description Some might say that this Tyrannosaurus Rex shows more humanity towards nature than most humans do. The story behind it takes place in the future, the Trex is protecting the only alive flower at his feet, roaring at whomever's perspective this piece is from (a person). It's a commentary about how we treat nature, this "bloodthirsty monster" is showing more compassion and humanity than most humans by protecting and preserving what is left of nature after humans destroyed almost everything natural on Earth due to their lack of caring. I failed to mention this earlier in my explanation because i figured no one would pick up on it, but the buildings farther back are not destroyed and look newer which represents the dying off of modern culture as nature fights for survival.

Yep.  After careful consideration, I've decided not to endorse your park.

No worries.  Even the owner decided that was for the best and he said he won't even endorse his own park.  XD

I love things with deep concept like this! Honestly I wonder a lot about the same things that you discussed in the descriptions, how sometimes animals can be more "human" and have that kind of consciousness of nature that humans don't have... I especially like the contrast between the T. Rex and the sunflower. Usually I think of sunflowers as innocent and bright, especially with the spot of yellow contrasting the very cool and dark colors that you used in this picture. And I think it's really interesting that it's contrasted with the T. Rex, usually fearsome, and that brings out the ironic element. There are so many preconceptions here that you completely overturned in an artistic way. I think that's really cool!

Thank you so much! I really appreciate your comment. I love reading comments like this because it makes happy to know that my art can inspire thought and discussion, this just made my day so once again thank you. This will probably always be one of my favorite pieces that I have done for that very reason.

I think this is great piece of work ! I've found this video youtu.be/WIUAC03YMlA Godzilla soundtrack. Yes ppl just destroying the planet without the punishment. Even on the movie Gidzilla is defeated by humans. I've seen that movie some time ago, and I was sorry for the Godzilla. She was the power of the nature....sometimes I hate myself because I'm a part of the humans that destroy our planet !
