It was wet here today, one snail crossed my path and one was hanging on to my cherry tree, the cherry tree climber is the artist. I once did this with my students, when I happened upon a boot full of snails on the way to class. No snails are harmed, just mix a tiny bit of food colouring in some water dip your snail and let it free on a nice piece of paper. It is great fun if you have a lot of snails, and a pallet of different food colours.
and I thought you loved animals!!! slave labour I say! xx
