How neatly spreads his claws,
And welcomes little lost souls in,
With gently smiling jaws!'' - the Caterpillar

I'm glad to see you updating on here It's a beautiful piece with smooth lines The use of red versus muted colors is truly brilliant and draws the eye to the image nicely. It helps the viewer take it all in gracefully.

Wow, I like how you described it. I like using one color as an accent, glad to know you think it works. I'm kind of sad I've been neglecting DA lately, have to make more time for it.

Thank you. I try put things eloquently when I view your works I do think you have a great understanding of colors and using them to there full potential. That is a special kind of talent. I'm thankful that I watch your FB page. Otherwise I would be in serious withdrawals from missing out on the eye candy that is your art

I see Alice took some of the brown acid this time.

Well, this gallery's idea is drug use/abuse. The Cheshire represents opium (and all that implies) and Alice is holding a decomposing poppy head.
