My actual title won't fit

"Some Things are better Left to Lie" is what I've dubbed this piece. Silk-screen print. Cleaned it up a tiny bit, there was a sploch on the leg and I'm not sure what happened to her hand but I trie dto fix it ( I think I failed though. )

Tell me if you can discern the monster from the rest of the roots.



"What's going on here?"

I'm glad you asked that. You see, in Norse mythology there is a serpent that eats at the roots of a tree. This tree is the Tree of Life and when it dies, so does the earth. Here I combined that with the manipualative nature of Munnin from the manwah and she is disturbing the great levithan.

Some things are better left to Lie

Silk-screen? Ay, horrible 7th-grade memories...

But this one's so neat! ^_^ I've always found silk-screening horribly difficult and messy to do, but you did such a great job with Munin! Excellent concept, too. :)
