Today's summary: Grasshopper sculpture for garden complete!

Got home from work... and... finished the grasshopper sculpture for the Denver garden project! I really like how it turned out. Take a look:

The sculpture is about a foot and a half long. The wire is copper, with a bluegreen patina. The wings are perforated brass sheet, with glued-on glass dots. The eyes are larger glass dots encased in aluminum mesh. I'm REALLY happy with the result.

The inchworm and ladybug from last week arrived in Denver today -- the collector is VERY happy, he said they're wonderful, I'm so thrilled.

After I took my photos at my parents' house, I went upstairs and hung out with Josh, flyingcar, and my brother Stefan. Mmm. Mellow. More work to do tomorrow, though!
