Osage Orange Spider
This was my first attempt as an entry to the Hogle Zoo’s annual (2008) “World of the Wild” art show. This was awarded the “Employees Choice” award. The spider is made from Osage Orange with small Rosewood points at the elbows and Rosewood claws. She’s also wearing bracelets (captive rings) on her front legs. The beady eyes and tongue are Redheart. She’s about 10″ tall.
