Description
Just as there is disagreement about the origin of the phrase, there are differing explanations of the meaning of “see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil." Some contend that it is a proverb reminding us not to be so snoopy, so nosy, and so gossipy. Others say that it is a warning to stay away from places where immoral acts are taking place. Whatever the origin and meaning of “see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil," it is one of the most visual phrases in existence. It’s impossible to hear it spoken without thinking of three wise, but very cute, little monkeys.

Outstanding image w/phrase. I like the meaning of both phrases. In short, we should simply strive to keep our noses clean creating less havoc.

Sensational ! Very Van Gogh, lol

there's also the third meaning: Be careful not to close your eyes from the evil happening around you, not to hear the evil being spoken around you, and don't hold back speaking about the evil around you. = beware of ignorance and keep up the freedom of speech.

This is really great! Instant favourite. At first I just saw the eye, and then slowly the ear came into view. It took me a few moments to see the mouth. And now that I've got them locked into my vision they are all so clear. This is digital art at its finest... you forced me to really have to look and study your composition. I am in awe of your talents.

Great concept and execution. You are right when you talk about how much the phrase has been associated with those three little chimps, but you have given it a fresh interpretation. Very well done!

This came out so wonderfully! At first glance I was not sure what I was looking at, then my eye adjusted to each find. Excellent work!

Great composition and interpretation of the quote Antoinette. I have to agree with "deadsomething" that a third meaning has evolved. Beautifully done my friend!
