pen and ink (11 X 15 inches)

finished this up this weekend (29 April 2007)

maybe we have it all wrong, perhaps the great mother is a fly. why do we always consider ourselves to be the dominant species anyway?

Yes! A fellow insect enthusiast!

Insects are way above humans when it comes to earthly dominance. The insect populations are constantly growing. Not to mention how much they have evolved and continue to diversify to this day. Insects can inhabit nearly every climate and habitat using only their evolutionary adaptations. Some of the eusocial insects also have the most advanced social systems of any animal. So what makes humans so great? It's taken us millions of years to develop this flawed society, while some silly little inverts can develop a perfect eusocial colony in a fraction of that time! All hail the insect lords:)
