Real Mountain Gems II: Roseate Skimmer Dragonfly
The Roseate Skimmer Dragonfly can be found in glimmering pink or purple or a mixture of both. They are not only gorgeous, but important as they eat many mosquitos.
This is one piece in a six piece series called Real Mountain Gems II. They are all needle felted with wool and recycled silk, and are presented as "specimens" under glass in shadowbox frames, 10 x 10 inches. They are depictions of real insects that can be found in the mountains of western North Carolina, where the city of Franklin is called the Gem Capital of the World due to the rich mineral and gem deposits in the area.
