Standing Bird Colorato Tall
- currently -
Make a whole new difference to the way your décor looks with the inclusion of art piece created with an eye as much of folk art as on contemporary appeal. Here is a bird fabricated by clever handling of metal sheets that have been shaped into a large bird - the head queerly like that of a toucan - the strong bill giving the tell - tale look away - and the colourful body so much like birds of the tropics. This piece can stand on its thin long legs, the torso created from sheets of metal painted in myriad colours and designs that somehow seem to come together though nothing like it really exist in nature. However, the very tribal feel of the bird is so strongly evident. The deep earthy colours in browns and natural indigo, the spiral designs and dots roughly painted, and the robust nature of its form - all indicate a revival of a very old style of rural craft. A piece that could stand in the corner perhaps with some foliage plants and make an impression quite its own. Would also looks as great in the outdoors, perhaps in the patio or the garden itself. Stands quite firmly balanced on its legs and wide feet which too have been fabricated from metal. A great means to compliment your wildlife or nature themed home where a burst of colours and energy would be welcome.
