Perplexed

Tidying up my files I came across this drawing from a couple of weeks ago. I wondered what I had been thinking and then remembered that I had had a dream of this image. Such a strong dream that I knew I needed to draw it. Was it reading about Wolfgang Laib's exhibition at MOMA [Link here] which I am really hoping to see. Was it reading about the collapse of bee colonies and how that would affect and threaten our future [link here]? It's a strange piece in the midst of all the straight and wavy lines I've been working with. Really don't know quite what to do with it, so for now it rests in its glissine envelope.

    1. I didn't know that Penny, thanks. I am going to go through my books on her and try to find it. Then I'll try google.
