A little bird to bring a big smile to your face! This wild bird is handcrafted from mostly salvaged materials using my unique methods and particular Posh Paper Mache. I have never seen a Kingfisher in the wild, but who doesn’t love their vibrant colours? Be sure to visit the Blog page of my website where you can see how my sculptures are made! This birdy begins with a template made from reclaimed wood and then manufactured metal legs are added to allow it to stand freely. The work is varnished but will be ephemeral outdoors - my tests show they can remain happy for up to three years outside, which is a comparable lifespan to a willow sculpture - artwork should last indefinitely if placed inside. This feathered friend measures 5cm w by 11cm l by 11cm h approximately. Each piece is unique and will vary a little in appearance from the photos, meaning you will receive a distinctive character! Every one is made to order (although if you need one quickly I may have some in stock), individually sculpted then hand-painted and decoupaged with fun snippets from magazines or some of my hand-painted papers. My larger bird designs make a cheerful visual impact or you may prefer my mini versions which are great as gifts. Concentrated heat e.g. placing your sculpture near a fire or radiator should be avoided, its construction uses hot glue which could possibly melt near a heat source. Why not have it personalised for free? There is space for a few words on it's body so that you can make it even more special by adding a name or significant phrase. Alternatively you can buy selected template designs from my Blog or book into a workshop with me if you would like to try making something yourself with my guidance! If you have any more questions please just get in touch and I’ll do my utmost to help! : )
