different for sure.. the artist came out good

Hmmmm....wonder what he wanted with so many sunflower seeds...and porcelain? Tryin' to confuse the birds maybe? Or are they porcelain birds?? anyhoo....very skillful drawing with great details! =)

Madness? Or some kind of commentary on the pointlessness of it all? I guess it'll be a moot point if today is the last one, eh?

I'm really enjoying the work you did on his face...those oh-so-stereotypically inscrutable eyes.

some context..from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ai_Weiwei In October 2010, Sunflower Seeds was installed at the Tate Modern Turbine Hall, London. The work consists of one hundred million porcelain "seeds," each individually hand-painted in the town of Jingdezhen by 1,600 Chinese artisans, and scattered over a large area of the exhibition hall.[33] The artist was keen for visitors to walk across and roll in the work to experience and contemplate the essence of his comment on mass consumption, Chinese industry, famine and collective work. However, on 16 October, Tate Modern stopped people from walking on the exhibit due to health liability concerns over the porcelain dust.[34] In February 2011, a 220-pound (100 kg) pile from Sunflower Seeds sold for $559,394 (well above its high estimate of $195,000) at Sotheby's in London.[35]
He is currently under arrest by chinese authorities for alleged 'tax evasion' .

He's in Beijing... Everything is China :0)

so, some reason this fabulous piece of reality is not in showcase? everything else detailed,and fantastically tightly rendered and licked,is in showcase. Besides, it's great.

Great work, its a shame the chinese government took him in
