Yes. I often feel that words/languages are awkward vehicles to convey the 
exact feeling of one's thoughts. This is one of such cases. I am interested 
in the techniques you have used, but what I find more deeply appealing here 
is the sense of wonder that these (simple) images evoque. Certainly 
reminiscent of Celmin's work or, let's say, a (possible) way towards 
Celmin's work. However, there is the potential of different paths to be 
taken from here and that is something to be looking forward to. Besides 
that, there are spiders of course. There are usually a couple of them in 
front of my kitchen window and each year I enjoy to contemplate the building 
of the webs. Of course, that means less window cleaning, which is a very 
un-dutch attitude, to be frown upon  :-)

Last but not least, my best wishes for the new year.

Thomas
