    How does this painting speak to you? I fucking love Naoto Hattori.

    Somehow it reminds me of the expressions of Ren and Stimpy.

    rather unattractive distortions of human forms that would be only semi-attractive without them. a sort of what if the herb became a consumerist commodity scenario. which doesn't discourage me from wanting to end the self serving silliness of its being unlawful, but doesn't otherwise attract me to much of anything. i'm sure the same person's done a lot of other stuff i would find more interesting or gratifying.

    (basicly a big meh!)

    I think that the painting is criticizing the two people in it more than it is praising anything.

    The chick's chin tat resembles Maori tribal tats from New Zealand, IMO

    it doesn't really say anything to me; it just looks like a poster you would see hanging in a hippy's smoking room

    Hmm yeah there is a slight resemblance there. I've been to NZ before. Those tats are awesome :D

    I like the ones on the shoulders of the guy on the left.

    me too. It's like it's all they want, all they can see and all they can think of, resulting in empty people.

    two people destroying and distorting their minds in the relentless pursuit of a substance that's eroding their ability to live fully (which is why the herb is depicted with a death skull). too much of anything results in a death of your self and the destruction of your body.

    it looks like it's the sole basis for their relationship, as well. hence the linked tongues/arms, though their eyes are only for the herb they're gripping.

    Its funny when people put all their efforts into weed, funny as in really stupid

    I like how it has negative connotation, but I hate art that depicts actual drug use...if it was inspired by drug use, like a surrealist work, that would be a different story
