Well ,

Its an odd way snails communicate . they have highly developed eyes, no evolutionary accident , been around since the dawn.

But even then , they need to speak and wonder what's going on !

you know Dave
you shouldn't put snails on a pedestal, Wink


if on high you place a snail,
the chances are that it will fail,
because at source they're rather frail,
and that Dave is the holy grail

I don't do poetry .... the scientist in me constrains.

But you could take away the snails and the ladders and the cracked earth and I'd happily look at that magnificent sky all evening long.

Thank god for visionaries such as yourself Dave or else EPZ would be a dull and lifeless place ..... snail-scapes could be the new EPZ bandwagon.

Hopefully ..........

Snails are smart, but they take so damn long to explain things they are close to redundant.

Wonderful, an other fantastic image. So much energy in the background of the image. I can see it so well. Dreams and meditation makes things very clear.

Antennae on the world. This seems to me to be a more optimistic artwork than you usually produce. I think it's rather cute, although I don't expect you like your work to be considered as such. Smile

It's good to see the much underated snail given prominence in such a stunning way. They know things, you know - deep primordial things - well that's what they told me anyway.

2nd image may well be how their spirits look . . . I believe they are descended from visitors.

After examination, this is a bit of a nightmare for me: The snails are under water and desperately trying to get to the surface which is the blue at the top… another interesting glimpse into your mind.
