An age-old scene takes place: a man unleashes a pickaxe, carving an open pit into the earthen ground, a metaphor from Exodus 21:33. Uncovered, the pit silently waits, a potential hazard left unattended. In the nearby, a bovine creature, an ox, strides unknowingly towards the pit; in tandem, an ass too finds itself nearing this trap. The scene captures the imperceptible moment right before the possible fall. Capture this intense anecdote in the style of soft color gradients, dynamic shapes, and a flat design as seen in digital art influences before 1912.
