In this series, I've continued depicting plants and people in harmony and symbiosis but with a darker twist. I create reverent seeming imagery but have a weapon pointed directly at the person paying tribute to these plants. The plants take on a more spiritual and deified role, as if they're religious icons. The one committing the soon-to-be violent act is unclear.
