This is one of the largest pieces I've done.(there's a quarter in the pic for scale) It took me app. 4 days,...so really, really quickly-(compared to the previous pieces) I am extremely pleased with how this came out. The majority of the wire used was framing wire,... but the thinner "floral" wire was used for texture, and strengthening over the framing wire. This is the first sculpture I've made that has multiple colors of wire in it. I tend to not do well with color in most of my art. Unless the color is very subtle....so I kept the color usage very conservative. Copper for the antennae, eye sockets, mandibles, & claws! 2 light shades of green were wrapped around the entire body. I spaced it very loosely,...again with the subtle
