Just Playing around with the pen tool on PS. It was not intended to be a "black person" I used black because when i think of stick people i think of pencil lead.
Interesting art in that people can read what they like into it. For me, the tree seems to be an unsymmetric (but still stylized) Tree of Life... the eyes of the man are represented by X's, which indicates that he is dead, and he seems to be holding either a feather or a fish skeleton. The fish is a symbol of Christianity.... Or it could mean that the Age of Pisces is ending. Enigmatic and disturbing.
If this was from a game of hangman, what was the word?
