Cicada Wings

Those of you who don't hail from the parts of the country that was inundated this summer w/ a visit from the 17 year cicada's might not fully understand the extend of the infestation. It was awful, you couldn't walk w/o having to step, over, on or around a cicada, the sound they made was deafening and lets not even talking about the hoards of them flying in the air when they weren't trying to land on you. We endured weeks of this before they all finally did their thing and retreated back down into the underground to wait another 17 years to return. Alas, as all artists do, we find things we can use EVERYWHERE in our art!! One good thing the cicada's did was drop thousands of wings as they made their transformations, I of coarse wandered aimlessly through town w/ my envelope and tweezers eager to collect these fabulous treasures of nature!!! This is my first piece of art using some of them. Just a simple ATC, but given that little extra something by adding those wings. I adhered them w/ a glue stick, it was the gentlest form of adhesive I could think of.
