IMAGE DESCRIPTION: 

                                      This image started with the dog and sheep
facing each other. I then added objects which, in my mind, were associated with
them. I did not know where I was going, or where I got to. Only after many
hours constructing this image did I think of a better idea, but by then it was
too late to start again. There does not seem to be a precise definition of
surrealism but maybe this image can be seen as surreal.

DESCRIPTION OF HOW THIS IMAGE WAS CREATED: 

                                                                                
           This image is simple CSG.
I started with the sheep, the dog and the eagle which I had made some weeks
earlier for another project. Then the leaping lambs were modelled from a photo
that I took years ago. They are a section of sphere_sweep with some spheres,
cones and cylinders. The snake/vine is sphere_sweep, the leaves are a slice of
sphere with torus veins ....and so on. There is nothing complicated or clever.
The POV file is a bit messy but I have attached it anyway.
