$19.95 – $27.95
Information about the Spiny-Backed Orb Weaver Spider:
The Spiny-Backed Orb Weaver is a small arachnid common to many areas of the world. They are small and while they do bite, generally the bite is harmless to humans. While they look somewhat like crab spiders, they are not related. G. cancriformis is found in parts of the southern US from California to Florida, and also parts of Central America, Jamaica, Cuba, Dominican Republic, South America and some islands in the Bahamas. These spiders prefer to live in the edges of woodland areas, and are commonly found in fruits groves. The spider does not live very long, usually a few weeks to a couple months. Males die in a few days after mating with the females.
The poster is printed on matte, museum-quality paper with Giclée printing quality:
• Paper thickness: 10.3 mil
• Paper weight: 5.6 oz/y² (192 g/m²)
• Opacity: 94%

Artist’s notes:
The Spiny-Backed Orb Weaver Spider was completed on 9/3/2011. Many years ago I saw a series of drawing of insects for the US post office. One of the insects was the curious Spiny-Backed Orb Weaver Spider. It was this series of stamps, along with my great love of nature and animals, that helped set me on a course of being a scientific illustrator. The drawing is based on a photo by Flickr member Beautiful-Mess
