Home to roost


Introducing "Violet Rain."

Yes, I'm a proud mama ;)


I thought perhaps I went a little too heavy-handed with the irridescence, so then I matted her sheen down a bit. I'm not sure she looks better here though.
I'll play with her a bit more tomorrow, but for now we're both calling it a day.
Well, she's cawling it a day!



I hope to be able to make more and get better at it.
What fun this was!!
Marianne, I'm still on that roll! ♥

    Watch that she doesn't take off and fly out the window. Looks like she could. Pretty bird up in banana tree...comes to mind. ;-)

    the first is my favorite too, but not totally. my very favorite is still the baby white raven. honest to god. there is something so little and pure about her. can lolo ravens be different colors? any one would know just by their expressions that they are lolo ravens. this is going to be such fun, lo!

    Very very nice!
    Ravens are amazing birds, they display by tumbling in the air hundreds of metres up and are very intelligent and playful. Your sculpture reminds me of being in wild places watching Ravens...

    I like the iridescence, but that does make it a wee bit starling-like. Either way, it's a beautiful baby bird.

    That is just beautiful - you've captured that awkward baby look perfectly. It's very sweet.
