Beetles in the Wild

I am excited to have two species of my woven beetles in the WILD exhibit at the Saaski Gallery in Monroe Washington.  I do love beetles and love capturing them in fiber.  

Below is a photo of one the two species at the exhibit - a dragon beetle from Thailand.  This is my interpretation of the Dicranocephalus wallichi wallichii woven with rayon and metallic sewing thread.  It is mounted on zebra hardwood.
