Copper Birdhouse
Here is a recently completed birdhouse. The base measures 6" x 6" and is 20" tall. It was formed using no sharp corners. All the design elements were formed by rolling the edges with a hammer. This gives the piece a fairytale look similar to one that could be found deep in a dark forest. Almost no layout lines were drawn and few measurements were used giving this sculpture a dream-like quality.
This piece of art was made during the coldest part of winter and was a nice way to pass the days. In other words, I am caught up in my projects. This gives me time to experiment.
This copper cottage features a flowering vine that is complete with one of my hummingbirds and a window with diamond grid.
Side View
This view shows the cottage window. This birdhouse will be installed on the front entrance of our house. I presently have a sculpture of a heron and hawk and this will be a nice addition.
Please Enjoy,
