Seeing Insect Or Flower in New Abstract Drawing?

By Abstractartbylt @artbylt

I began this abstract drawing with some quick lines radiating from the center, using magenta and red calligraphy pens.  The lines created shapes that spread out in a floral pattern.

Then I got busy with fine line black and red pens, creating more shapes and filling in some of the original shapes with texture.  Finally, I filled in some of the spaces with lavender and peach brush pens. 

When I hold this drawing up, it feels insect-like to me.  What do you think?

I hope it's not a spider.  I have a spider phobia.
