Lovely job! I'm amazed at your ability of putting so much of critters in the same piece without it being cramped looking.

Thank you! I spent a lot of time tearing my hair out over that... It's a good thing it all grew back!

A rather interesting take...

I saw your other biodiversity pictures and was curious to know if there was a story or special meaning behind the one who is part animal part human. Otherwise pretty impressive.

The one who is part human is a representation of 'Mother Nature' and our connection to her and to the other animals as fellow children of the earth. She has a human face so we can recognize her.

Also, it looks pretty!

Out of curiosity, how much have you delved into the 'spiritual connection' with wildlife and ourselves?

A friend knew of someone who would have been able to talk of such matters, but she was never able to get a hold of them again for some reason.

I wouldn't really say I 'delved into' anything. I just like animals? And think we shouldn't drive 'em extinct. Also I like mother godesses, they're neat.
