Backatcha! #pinkeraserart #linocut

This baby huntsman spider was fascinated with my first pink eraser prints, and stayed for hours. The next day I decided to ease him out of his reverie (he was staring in the direction of the bee) with a high five to the leg he was holding up. (I went extremely slowly with my finger tip until it touched the tip of his leg.) He pulled the leg back momentarily but didn’t seem bothered. I then then moved my finger forward again, but this time stopped short just underneath his leg to see if he would tap me back, and he did. Made my day. I decided to put him on a flower outside as a thank you. He was hesitant at first to leave the paper, but when I found the right flower, he scrambled on. #pinkeraserart #insectencounters #spider #linocut
