Description
Douglas Adam’s makes the claim that the mouse is the most intelligent species on Earth in the modern classic, Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. “These creatures you call mice, you see, they are not quite as they appear. They are merely the protrusion into our dimension of vastly hyperintelligent pan dimensional beings.”
Sometimes when a mouse is running across my floor or I find one caught in a trap I consider the vast population that they make up; the number of predator’s mouths they are able feed each day by merely existing. Just imagine the amount of seeds they spread during the fast paced lives they lead. Though they are often viewed as a pest they are definitely a necessary species and a quite successful one. They just might be hyperintelligent pan dimensional beings and we would never know. I like considering that fact as I empty and reset the mouse traps and remove mouse nests from stashed lumber in my woodshed.
This piece is a 6″x6″ acrylic painting on gallery wrapped canvas (which means it is ready to hang on a nail as is, straight out of the box).
