Toni Hamel is a Toronto-based artist who analyzes the complex human behavior in her artworks. She works with different mediums, including oil and alkyd, to realize her ideas in the form of paintings, drawings, or sculptures.
Hamel describes her work as "an illustrated commentary of human frailties". She uses her personal experiences and observations to create satirical illustrations that reflect on and interpret the psychological unease characteristic of our age. "Virtues and vices, the holy and the profane, the good and the bad all share equal weight in her work and supply an infinite source of material for her investigations," reads Hamel’s website. "Pointing to historical and psychological references while tackling issues of universal interest, Hamel’s narratives question our behavior to eventually alert us about the repercussions of our current thinking models."

Are they adding stripes in an attempt to beautify everything or are they taking the stripes to make the animal "normal"?

Well, it's definitely a horse and not a zebra so adding stripes.

Although it seems like deforestation for pencils but I believe it means the death of creativity for more "useful" things to do (the death of the last pencil)

That's all they see as they destroyed the forests, those were the trees that balanced the ecosystem.

This one is pretty powerful and it has so much meaning. We have the tools to live in a colourful world, but we have to work for it. Also, we have the power to both create and destroy our nature. And then there is a pessimistic interpretation, like, all this greenery and beauty is fake.

Went there once. I was 6. An orca almost bit me and my poor mom got scared shitless. I still tried to beat the s**t out of the workers for punishing it. My mom stopped me. And they were damn sure lucky she did. I could punch really hard when i was 6. Since they were men, 6 year old me had everything planned out. Kick em in the balls, save orca, RUN.

This is actually incredibly sad. These animals in the zoo often live in terrible living conditions.

Here we see them trying to prove that it was not the harsh way they treated their planet that was causing the irregular weather conditions, despite their own technology and tests telling them otherwise.

Is that a woman in a dress with hairy legs? Or a man in a dress - or clothes that resemble a dress?
