I don't understand the need to name your drawings

Are you a ChemE? That’s a pretty good looking flare stack for a pixelated gif. Even showing the steam injection

I don’y understand your need to comment.

It does, I like it. It’s amazing that for all the detail in modern gaming, most titles still have less soul than your 16 frames.

This is slightly haunting. The feeling of the wind blowing the trees reminding us of the preciousness of what we have and the flare stack reminding us how we are going to lose it. Also the gigantic clouds reminding us how small we are and how life will go on on Earth with or without us.
The scene is lonely, there's not a huge amount to look at, not a lot of life or activity shown. Just a slightly ominous sense of time moving forward out of our control.

How much of the world economy or your life do you think would be possible without the chemical industry?

That's how art works

Nope.
Art is about interpretation, subjectivity, experience.
You don't slap art in someone's face and tell them what to see.

Uh huh. What's the name of Leonardo Da Vinci's most famous piece, the one that's in the Louvre?
Ydlmgtwtily t1_iyf7iaw wrote
Excellent example!
-
A name that isn't telling you what to think. In fact, many would posit that the subtleties in the peice which enable such fundamental disagreement between it's appreciators, have a great deal to do with it's popularity.
-
Piece was named, as all great art, by collectors, not by artist, and given a name that attempts to factually describe the subject. See: Van Gogh's Wheatfield With Crows or Sunflowers. If either of these were named for an emotion like "Longing" or "Nostalgia" they would instantly loose all mystery and dimension.

How about you get enough clout to start naming pieces and then you can rename this one instead of pissing in the wind at some random ass pixel artist?

Why on earth would I want to start naming pieces?

You seem to think you have much better ideas than the person who drew it, why NOT do something with that instead of just passive aggressively bitching about it in front of them?

Hi all! This pixel art animation is 320x200px using 12 colors and 16 hand drawn frames. I doubled the resolution for viewing purposes. I hope it brightens your day <3
