Did you do that with a mouse or do you have a tablet?
Hehe, they have eyebrows!

That's very funny and humoristic, Piestar  Here another "osbscure" paninting of mine, representing snail shells among other interacting elements; it's named "night time"  |

Thank you Coyote I'll find some more, even if snails are not the sole depicted subject! |

Do you have representations of snails at home? I have got a whole collection of slimey friends! Some of stone, ceramic, wood, fabric, soap, candy... And even an alarmclock which I never used for its ringing is aweful...  Attachments:

That snail basket is nice. I find the concept of a snail alarm clock quite funny. ;D If I had snail-shaped soaps or candles I'd never want to use them and have them disappear little by little.
I recently began collecting snail imagery in art but it's slow going because I can't afford a lot of art.

There were fruit candies originally in the basket... Yum! You're right I never used my soaps, but I never found any snail candle, surprisingly...

I found this today: some sort of . . . snail princess?Artist's page here (scroll down for snail "princess"). Advisory: some may find the imagery on that page disturbing, and some is Not Safe For Work / School. ETA: I see now, it's titled Fairy Queen (not Snail Princess). (I like my title better! ;D) |

Has anyone read The Sound of a Wild Snail Eating by Elisabeth Tova Bailey? It's part memoir and part naturalist observations of snails, and it's beautifully written. I read it last week, and I highly recommend it.
