Last week he could be found perched on Caroline's ladder. But now the hall has been painted, he's settled on a chest-of-drawers to greet visitors coming through the front door.
He was handmade by Emily Sutton, an artist originally from North Yorkshire, who recently completed her studies at Edinburgh College of Art. Her soft sculptures--whether of birds or people--are all so beautifully detailed, and each has its own unique personality.
Now we really must think of a name for him.
I'd call hijm Septimus, and I have no idea why. Makes a change from Fred though.
ReplyDeleteHe's lovely....I remember seeing an article recently in World of Interiors about these little birds. I like dottycookie's name suggestion.
