Man with his right lower leg missing after an amputation.
Smoking causes the arteries to close, so that a whole leg or foot can die and an amputation is necessary.
Part of a series about the adverse effects of smoking.
Introducing "Embryo"
Embryo is a very simple non intentional automatic (*) nearly first shot drawing. It was intended to be a support for experimenting blur effects on crossed, angular and curved lines in Inkscape. After working several hours with it, it came out of the blur of my inconscient that it was very resembling to an animal or human embryo and that was why I called it "Embryo".
It's a poetic non ideologic symbol of life or artistic creation at its beginning and also a nice image of my first steps on this site.
On the other hand, the svg file contains a reusable and modifiable filter effect !
Enjoy it !
