Captured in Moonlight

 
    
This piece is the result of an art challenge by the Southwest Florida Craft Guild for our 2010 show at Big Arts on Sanibel Island.  It was the "silver" anniversary of the show, consequently we were challenged to make one of our entries with a touch of silver.  My first thought was "Impossible".  My entry was a gourd covered a chocolate texture finish, pine needles, silver sea grape leaves, and beaded rays of moonlight.  The knotless netting was done in brown thread and fine silver wire and silver beads.  The use of wire is something that I have just begun to use, so it was a challenge.
