But I like watermelon.
Notbad
Well its art however you look at it I think the expression of eyes was just perfect lol, the watermelon was nice too overall this was a fun art piece and the theme well it is what it is.
~~SUGGESTED IDEAS~~
I would add some dripping element of the watermelon
~X~
Wtf
This is one weird way to show watermelon appreciation... but I do like it. XD Gritty style and strong color... almost a hypnotizing tone to that watermelon slice too. Looks nice.
-cd-
Yes it’s a weird way to show appreciation.What makes this even more hilarious is that I didn’t even think about the race when I drew it until someone I knew pointed it out. I drew it because I personally love watermelon and didn’t think of the negative connotations of it within the black community.I was like “oh god....” when that person pointed that out😆
They told me to change the race of my character because of the issue, but I think it would of been even more racist to change the race of my character due to an old stereotype from ages ago. Let the boy have his watermelon. When I told the individual that I wasn’t going to white wash him they advised not to post this piece online. As you can see I did it anyway 😆
