Every year the post office will issue a stamp which stands for next year. And it will be the Year of Rabbit and the stamp is from a very famous painter called Huang Yong Yu. Yes, he is quite famous, and I know he is good at painting owls. He has painted quite a lot of different owls and all of them look unique. As to the rabbit he painted, many people complain about it since this rabbit looks evil. This is the art. Sometimes we think it can be terrible than a child but it makes a difference since it is from a famous painter So what do you think about this rabbit? Do you like it?

Yes the rabbit is looking evil because of its eyes.

But it is fine for rabbits to have red eyes. There must be something wrong with its design.

@Beestring Red eyes signify evils. The painter should have taken care of the same.

I thought the rabbit looked angry before I read your discussion starter and I still think it looks angry after I read you discussion starter. Maybe the artist does better with owls.

These are some of the owls he draw. Do you think they look better?

My sister and some friends are Rabbits . . . yes, next year will be their year! I quickly looked up Huang Yong Yu and his work . . . this rabbit doesn't seem to be in his usual style. He has a brushy ink style, while this one is rather solid and more cartoon like. Red eyes and the angle of them make them "evil" looking - and in contrast with that blue, it looks more menacing.

No, I do not like it, it's ugly, it's not only because of the eyes, it looks like an obese rabbit.

@youless Not to mention those almost human hands, it's not cute at all.

To appreciate an art depends on the eyes of the beholder. For me, the rabbit doesn't look nice.

I think many people think the same, even if it is from a famous painter Do you still remember the stamp for the Year of Tiger? People complain about they look like sick Tigers. And in 2022 many people get sick

The rabbit looks like one of the characters from the Chinese horoscope. Doesn't look that evil to me.

Though it is not my preference of this one, it is cute, just not for me. It does not remind me of evil at all. But it may be fooling someone like me.
