This pen and ink drawing was inspired by a friend who draws a comic about Grey aliens. He had posted several. After enjoying them I started thinking about aliens.
Of course I am convinced they exist even though I apply my personal belief rule of not believing anything wholly unless I have seen it myself. I lean that way, not because of the reports….but because of the vastness of space, and the rich diversity of life here on earth. As above, so is below; or however that goes.
At any rate, it was a great deal of fun to consider aliens giving up on talking to humans because we are such arrogant, war hungry, competitive creatures. It was even more fun to consider that they might negotiate with and side with what one would perceive as our natural enslaved enemy that we eat. That could work out very badly for us.
I hope you enjoy.
