Steampunk Spiders & Other Clockwork Critters

The artwork of Mike Libby is a wondrous mix of amazing detail, combining the elements of clockwork mastery with evolutions own elegant designs.  I absolutely love it.  One part steampunk sci-fi, one part watchmaking,one part entomology, and all around genius is what I consider his works.  I feel that Libby’s art is a testament to the way in which the sciences look to the living world for inspiration.

Check out this CNET Slideshow of several of Libby’s pieces.
