 Thanks for all the great comments!

A couple of people asked if this was a painting. No, not at all. The bottom half is a mezzanine which the green thing, a piece of folded card, was sticking out over about 2 feet above. The bluish top half is about 10 feet above that.

Really liked how people thought it was a cute little inchworm creature. For me the image conveyed a sense of sinister desolation and loneliness, i almost called the image The Hermit or similar but decided not to influence viewers ideas with a title. Of course, now all i can see is a little inchworm and all thoughts of a moody image flies right out the window!! Thanks a lot people!!! There goes my attempted tortured artist image!!

You already know that I thought it was wonderful, but here, have a bluebird!

I rather liked this one. Surprised it didn't do a bit better.

My first glance was a dune in the desert. I kinda like it - I'd like a bit more mystery to help draw me in. 6

One of my favorites in the challenge! It will always be an inch worm, in my mind.

5 - Not doing much for me. I like the simplicity, but doesn't hold my interest.

Simple and pure, wonderful lines and color and texture. Enough good stuff to hold attention. This would be nice BIG and hanging.

I may be odd, but this is delightfully playful. I see a little green inchworm having a blast.

"In my dream, I'm a snail... slowly crawling along the edge... of a straight razor" Proper OOB shot, very nicely executed. Top job!

Would I hang this on my wall. Perhaps, yes, I like the idea. I judge on what I would hang in my apartment. However, I would like to see this smaller and in an "larger" frame. Just like "good" art should be. For your courage I give you my first 8
