The curves of this image give it a surreal effect almost like an MC Escher piece. The theme of this piece is of a community harvesting wheat which is a backbreaking task to say the least. The image is very powerful and very skillfully done. Although its surreal appeal, the figures are done with great realism. The curved line scheme gives and the quality of the drawing give this piece a wonderful composition. Thomas Heart grew up in rural Missouri so his roots in images such as this were common in his life.
Everything is always a little surreal. See the link below for more info.
