Magnificent colours like rays of light on a vast garden, painted onto this richly adorned Spotted Mantis. Green, red, and black, all intermingled to compose a stunning creature. The wings, delicate like a Thrush’s egg, can be torn any moment in time. Green like the power of envy, wishing earnestly to steal another's affection. Like the spine of a feather, the legs are thin and spindly, but incredibly strong, empowering strength into this Mantis. The hands, thrust up into the unknown, praising the Creator of whom he is made, longing to understand the secrets of existence.
The heart of this radiant being must surely be beaming with joy, hope and love.
