Made this for a friend's husband--he'll be having treatment for throat cancer over the next few weeks, and she says he'll wear this to appointments. Two sizes of wooden base, acrylic paint, paper collage, Mod Podge, sharpies, bar-pin backing.

Spider's Web is crab, bacon, and angel-hair pasta, with pesto aioli. A little too rich for me, but certainly a sight to behold! Aviation Park, 7/3/11.
