This cross stitch pattern mashes up modern art with modern civil disobedience.
If the pigs ask you about your cans, just tell them it's soup for your family.
It'll make the perfect gift for anyone you know who happens to be living in an Anarchist Jurisdiction.
I was trying to imagine how Belgian absurdist painter Renee Magritte might have painted a soup can, in the style of the pipe from his seminal work "The Treachery of Images"
I also did some research and found some samples of his handwriting to create the rest of the text.
The text reads "This is not a weapon. It's just soup for my family" in a script matching that of Magritte's original painting.
Just ask Donald Trump: "It's better than a brick"!

My model stitch is done on 28ct linen over-2 in a frame I custom made by cutting down a larger thrift store score.
