Original artwork description:

This painting I takes inspiration from a Greek legend inwhich the artist Zeuxis entered a competition to paint the most realistic representation of reality, when he revealed his painting birds tried to peck at the grapes after being fooled by his mastery of illusionism.
Painting can be about entering another world where anything is possible , the artist creates illusions to make his reality believable.
