This is a handmade, one-of-a-kind art sculpture made from gourds. It uses two "egg" gourds to form the body and dense wire for the legs and horns. Epoxy clay was used to sculpt the accurate forms of the legs, carapace, and every small detail. The wings are made from acrylic sheet plastic, dyed with india ink and paint. It's painted with acrylics and metallic/chameleon powder, then sealed with moisture-resistant sealer. It's mounted to a cherry finished fiberboard decorative base. ***not for outside display***
