These birds are made from stoneware. I cut the bird shapes, paint a layer of contrasting coloured clay and then, when it is almost dry, I carve into the surface, using a method called 'sgraffito', to reveal the white clay beneath. The birds are then fully fired, without glaze, to give a beautiful matt textured surface reminiscent of woodcuts.
Each of my birds is individually carved and is, therefore, completely unique.
Once fired I hang the birds from a length of liberty fabric cord.
These look great hung individually, amongst pictures or in little groups of two or more!
