Secrets of Nature #2

This painting is about humanity being a part of nature. Our impact upon the environment around us, directly affects us as a species. I have combined and camouflaged a person into the form of a sunflower. I want the flower to be seen initially, but as you look at the painting more closely you will see the human form within it. Is the man consuming nature or is nature consuming us? Will our damage to the environment ultimately cause humanity’s extinction?
