This is a compilation of two drawings. It comes from a comment of my friend that my eyes are especially good at finding butterflies everywhere. If I was courageous (or stupid, I am not sure which) I might have my eyes tattooed to look like this. Both drawings done with gold gel pen in white paged sketch book (110gsm Cartridge paper – acid free). / The gel pens work well in sketch books. I love the gold as it has the appearance of being a bit magical. I love butterflies and consider them wonderous wings and a symbol of new beginings and ongoing hope.

I am very eager to share my new finding,a close-up of the planet Tandaloor researched by the eminent Frank Herbert in his famous Dosadi Experiment. The planet is occupied by amphibious, froglike beings, the webbing on their feet is a necessity to extract oxygen from water so they can also exist on land. They live as much in water as out of it, with waterways connecting their buildings and serving as passageways within their homes. You can see one of the main waterways on the top right of this image. Gowachin society is structured around large extended families, or phylums, each of which owns a huge family hall. A Gowachin’s phylum affliation is indicated by tattoos on its eyelids. Most members of a phylum are born into it, but it is possible for outsiders to make an application to join a new psylum. Historically, people including famous celebrities have been missing, their bodies not accounted for. What the Gowachin society refers to as an application is in reality an abduction, especially of females. This is a male dominated society who believe that females have inferior intelligence and no viable function beyond breeding. Of course, we are familiar with this antiquated caste system on Earth;however on Tandaloor no progress has been made to change the male’s perception of the female and women are sequestered in the graluz, or breeding pool, deep inside he Gowachin’s house. This breeding pool can only be accessed through underwater tunnels. In the middle of the photograph, one of the tunnels is visible. It is there that the young tads are hatched and as the male reachs maturity, they have to pass several rites of passage to join the adult male society. If you look closely on the arms of the females, there are fertility marks. It is also interesting that Frank Herbert documented two types of eyelid tattoos, one which represents the swiftist of the tribe called Running Phylum and the other representing the deep swimmers.
