I'm sorry, I've tried but I can't see the humour in this at all. I'm actually quite disgusted. I'm all for artisitc freedom and I do understand that this is intended as a joke but there are some things that just shouldn't be joked about. I think this is perhaps one of them.

I must apoligize. Not for offending you, but for not seeing a valid reason for you to be disgusted. Its a drawing of something horrible, not somebody actually doing something horrible. The humor comes from the fact that its so ridiculously absurd that no one would ever really consider doing it.
Now I must be going so I can go bite the heads off kittens.

The point is that people do consider doing it - And people do do it - And lives are lost - And you are making a joke about it. Would you like me to produce statitistics as to how many infants die each year from child abuse?
Clearly you are unsympathetic to this issue and that is not what bothers me the most. It is your lack of respect to the victims, their families and others who have been effected by horrific acts of abuse such as "baby kicking" all for the sake of a bad joke. Clearly its not for the sake of art because this is a pretty bad rendering.

This is part of a drawing-style series; a quick, bad render was my goal.
Never in my life have I heard of anyone kicking a baby for distance as a form of child abuse. It is, as you said, merely a bad joke.
Also, you're one to talk about art being done well. I don't consider using Photoshop to create greyscaled pictures with splashes of color on them, all in the effort to hide the fact that the original image is not very good, to be an action done for the sake of "art".

woah... surreal! reminds me of something from a Tool video clip. I like the idea and the render is very realistic

Thanks. The style is completely different from my five other Baby Kicker pictures, though.
