A Pewter Bird in a Pear Tree

I struggled with this piece . I had first created the pewter wrapped bird using the hand carved ready to decorate birds I sell in my Etsy store . I wanted something unique yet simple and wanted to use my favorite techniques. Paper clay for the leaves , dry brush painting on the leaves, wooden pear and wheel base , wire work for some of the leaves and a wee bit of shrink plastic on the domed portion of the hat . A Pewter Bird in a Pear Tree .

Ready to decorate hadn carved wood birds for slae in my ETSY shop
