This is my version of how I would like to see the hookah smoking caterpillar from that famous tale(most of us would know the story I'm referring to). I gave her an exotic Eastern flair complete with a huge turban, silken pillows and a patterned robe. She lounges atop a huge smiling toadstool who I think is smitten with her.

To all fellow artists out there....I really wish ppl would get over the "nudity" thing...there is absolutly nothing bad/dirty/nasty about it!!! If the Greeks could create art...and it be admired all over the world....so can we. I happen to think nudity is really beautiful and that ppl would learn a lot more about how the world REALLY IS...than a ficticious...reed-thin goddess-model "perfection" that we are all brought up believing in. Ppl are NOT all one size/color/shape......and STOP doing all females!!!!! All I ever seem to see are pin-up play-girls....you never get to see MASCULINITY....ya know....there IS such a thing!!!! I just .....SOOOOOOO wish the world would "grow up" when it comes to art/reality....but that’s just me....(but I still think ppl would be a whole lot more relaxed and at-ease if they all just let go of these silly ideas about male/female/nudity/art/reality....etc....stuff!!!!!!!).....so- ....that’s my rant about the "nudity" topic....just a pet peeve of mine............

anyway.....I love all your artwork....I know...I’ve commented on it before....but it’s still the best here...I think anyways....!!!! gotta work on getting my stuff up here!!!

Isn’t that the caterpillar from ’’Alistair in Wonderland’’? Anyway, Creativity is the key to a good life!

I love that you captured a full figured women. Its more realistic, and women will appreciate the beauty.

You know..... I am aware that this is an alice in wonderland reference, but I think this piece of yours reminds me of a premature fairy. Like before it grows its wings it has to be half catapillar. You know what I mean. Well maybe I am just rambling, but still...
