very good 'stuff' old chap.
Quick summation: Sort of like evolutionary beginnings then to man, and on the top the butterfly, a sort of transformation (though its more like the "deathshead moth" from Silence of the Lambs so with the transformation/death thing going on, you've got the whole ascension to the spiritual realm or the unknown beyond death -- not to mention the things surrounding it are winged associated with angels, or flight, and in turn the heavens). Also, back with the animals at the bottom which remind me of the whole Eastern motif where the world sits on the elephants on top of the giant turtle.
Anyway, I love these dark pen, marker, pencil drawing whatever things that you do; you make great use of the small line technique that Gustave Dore famously did in his "bible" and divine comedy illustrations (but of course you achieve it in your own distinctive style which gives it a genuine, original feel -- bravo for that). I really like the themes being worked with too, and especially the latin/occult-ish titles ascribed.
Hope your gallery events go well and that you have the success you so obviously deserve... with as prolific and talented as you are, I don't see why you wouldn't.
This fifteener is a tenner. (out of ten!)
