“Everything we see hides another thing, we always want to see what is hidden by what we see. There is an interest in that which is hidden and which the visible does not show us. This interest can take the form of a quite intense feeling, a sort of conflict, one might say, between the visible that is hidden and the visible that is present.” 
― René Magritte


What's better than a quote from one of the most surreal artists ever for an n-art from one of the most creative n-artists here? — zoasBE

done nicely

but you're basically featuring a well-known painting. To each their own, though, I guess you could see a different meaning in this being constructed with little people (that is, ninjas)

I see black people.

...

To me is top-notch

Due to several reasons starting from the brush (using only Ninjas as object/pencil) that mrgy05 choose and how he compose the canvas. It was a clean and smart decision to only use Ninjas as object and the way that them works here, and nuances and textures that he was able to create here alone with these. The theme, the idea, its proportion. The delicacy, the simplicity, the sobriety.

This is maybe a 4/5, but I'm not sure how I feel about it being featured. An n-art really needs to be extraordinary, and I'm just not feeling this one. To each their own, though.

The distorted effect is awesome/

Apg

Apg i doubt you have any right to criticise this work of art in any negative matter. This N-art piece is absolutely superb. I would take lightly on the downsides of Mrgy05's works of art, and focus more on the postives... Because the sheer contrast of skill used to create these pieces to anyone elses does not exist. 5/5

Heh

I have no response to that comment worth my time.

It is nice,

but doesn't quite match the criteria for a 'brilliant, flawless' N Art.

You get a shiny 2.5/5, it looks like an average N Art in my opinion. Not bad, though.

Quite a few

2 1/2 - 3 if I had to guess, I just went on a wim and did it though, I wanted it abstract.

top rated!

v nice. btw i was 1st to rate this lol. i rated b4 anyone else when it was the newest map. i rated 5/5

dude, this rocks

how many hours did this take?

Well...

I don't like to completely copy another artists concept, so I alterate and create another piece of art.
