Description
Deep within the Tarantula Nebulae, yes, it truly does exist, go here to see it:
http://www.eso.org/public/news/eso0650
As I was saying, deep within the Tarantula Nebulae there exist this beautiful little star! But beware for it is not at all what it seems. It is a web, a trap for unwary travelers. If you look very closely, you will see her, Lady Tarantula, just there, waiting for her dinner. She blends herself very carefully into the background, shifting colors as much as she can to disappear.
Perhaps a lesson to learn .. there is a reason things are named as they are.
A little bit of everything in here, Gnarls from Bunny and Bart's Gnarl scripts, the spiderwoman tube by mikemusike from free stuff, the web/star is raw flame tweaked till it cried for mercy, and the the rest in PSP. One of those fun images to play with.
Many thanks for commiserating with me about the fact that our Bunny has closed her gallery due to theft. Not just once, but quite a few times her art was stolen. It broke her heart, and then it broke ours.
Hope you all are beginning to see bits of spring .. we still have snow, but they promise warmer temps and sunshine .. so MELT snow, MELT!!

Ooh she is a very sexy tarantula that loves red shoes lol. It doesn't look like she's caught anything in her web yet..Great piece Rita.

Rita dear it is stunning. I had wondered why she was in this position.... tee hee and runs I HATE spiders but i love this image. Wow it is amazing .

Very cool image. The snow has finally gone here (to stay I hope) Though it does mean tons of work as we prepare to fix up and sell our home. I too ma sad thsat bunny has chosen to move elsewhere. Looks like she has found a nice spot though.

Marvelous creation Rita. Learned a bit too! Yes our Bunny was very hurt. She was with me recently. Don't you wonder? With one as generous as she, how another could be so crude? Well, she is doing well and her place at redbubble is wonderful. Her work is also guarded there and she is well thought of there. She's okay and I am happy that she is. Our loss but that is life. She'll do more than well there. And we will remember and cherish her gifts to us. Hugs Rita!!!

Fabulous! Such a beautiful image! What do people do with stuff they steal? What pleasure can it give anyone to pretend it's theirs? The whole point of art is the pleasure in making it, and then sharing it..the thieves are arid fools.

Very cool idea and artwork, I love the red shoes! There will always be a few who spoil it for the rest of us!

Assuming that the universe, each predator himself a predator, and the man now at the top of the food chain, destroy this insect, it is likely that bunny will be avenged when one or more his thieves will turn stolen. Some here believe that the shipments are free, we can all afford ... that's a lot of "friends left for me and not come back! Attention tarantula ... the web is full of viruses!

Perfect title..great concept and idea! Fantastic creation, so sorry about Bunny :)
jendellas
The light draws you, then she reacts, great image, love the different colours. I agree re art theft, if it isn't yours, whats the pleasure in pretending it is????

Wonderfully spider-like, yet still abstract. The freedom here is the trap.

So stunning design!

A fine creation.The approach of Springtime is in the air and much of the snow has melted here,but it is not quite done yet.Just a bit more is on the way.

so orgeous an instant fav! And so sorry to read about the theft and the consequences...oh my I just can't understand those who do something like that...and glad to hear she found a new secure place for herself

My word that Lady Tarantula is a devious one as she hides herself very cleverly here. Your tweeking of the formula really paid off as you got a wonderful result. I'm sending some warm thoughts to help with the snow melt.
