I don’t think so, I think she just didn’t think about it when posting for the pic

The hair + shadows all look convincing

The only two strawberries pictured are in the basket and in her hand, so that seems like a valid explanation.

She is just an idiot.

Edit: On further thought, maybe she is trying to feed the tree?

Wow, you just made me think of “The Integral Trees” by Larry Niven for the first time in like 30 years. “Feeding the tree” is a euphemism for 💩 in that book.

No maybe she’s not that much of an idiot.

She’s trying to feed an ant on the tree. (…about right level of idiot.)

The leaves also look consistent with the tree, but not identical or bleeding into each other. I also vote not artificial intelligence, but manual stupidity.

Looks completely real. Might’ve been purposely wrong to drive engagement, or just didn’t think people would look that close

Maybe when she’s done colouring her current book, she can start on one about fruit.

Also possible: the image looks better with her standing, rather than bent over while picking strawberries

If only there were some kind of fruits that did in fact grow on trees. 🍎

Cows can’t climb trees. You’re thinking of goats. Ergo, goat milk comes from trees.

Totally depends on the angle. I’m sure that I could make it into an interesting picture.

This actually just looks like good old fashioned shitty photoshop. Probably an entry-level or low pay role at ‘Evie Magazine’

Even simpler: she had a basket of strawberries, picked one up and acted like she was taking it from the tree.

Strawberries do not grow on trees. This explains why they’re so expensive.

The strawberries in OP don’t look like those tree strawberries. technically strawberries do grow on tree, but this photo is still poorly staged.
