Tawny Baby Owl on a hydrangea wreath
This baby tawny owl sculpture is made with handprinted feathers in coppery brown, pale gold and white tones. His whole body is covered in hand cut paper feathers. His face is pale gold and he has a light golden brown belly. He sits on a branch adorned with pale green mottled hydrangea blossoms.
This piece measures 20 cm (8 inches) tall. The owl is 9 cm (3.5 inches) tall.
Comes boxed and ready to gift. I am always happy to write a note, if you would like to send this owl as a gift. There is a box for messages at checkout.
Other colours are available, so do get in touch if you would like a custom owl made especially for you.
I design these sculptures with a ruler and protractor, cutting out and gluing each piece by hand. The paper is hand printed. I draw patterns with a paintbrush and other tools onto a blank silkscreen, so the markings and textures are individual to each piece and cannot be replicated. My sculptures are varnished with a UV protective lacquer, to ensure their colours remain vibrant. Metallic lustres are also added to the paint, which gives a little shimmer and brings depth to their colour palette.

BESPOKE SCULPTURES, MADE BY HAND
Each paper sculpture is entirely handmade, from design to hand painted paper, to every hand cut feather or petal. Bird sculptures are given their own pose and expression. This ensures every piece is unique. If you own one of my sculptures, yours is the only one of its kind.
HANGING YOUR SCULPTURE
Each wall sculpture has a hand shaped copper coated steel hook, suspended on invisible fishing line, at a 30 cm drop from the top of the wreath. This hook will hang on a nail tack or picture hook on your wall. The sculptures are robust, but lightweight, so will only require one tack.
All tree stump standing sculptures are fitted with a cork base, to ensure the sculpture will not mark your furniture.
PACKAGING INFORMATION
Every sculpture is wrapped in tissue paper, in a cardboard box, adorned with paper ribbon. All packaging comes from recycled sources and can be recycled in your paper bin again, including any stickers or paper tape.
SHIPPING INFORMATION
Delivery to any UK address is free. Shipping to the US is £20, and orders to Europe is £25. If you cannot see your location at the checkout, please get in touch and I can set that up for you.
There may be taxes or other charges applicable when your parcel reaches your country, which you will be responsible for paying. Please get in touch if you would like me to investigate what charges may be applicable for you.
CARE INFORMATION
All sculptures are varnished with a UV protective lacquer, which keeps their colours bright and seals their edges. They are easy to care for; all they need is a tickle with a feather/microfibre duster every now and then. Wall sculptures hang on the wall via a copper coated steel hook, suspended by invisible fishing line at a drop of 30 cm from the top of the wreath.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
I aim to run as environmentally friendly a business as I can. All sculptures are made with recycled 300 GSM paper. Paints, lacquers and lustres are vegan. My sculptures are wrapped with entirely recyclable packaging, from the paper ribbon to tape. I use acrylic paints and plastic eyeballs and invisible fishing line to hang the wreaths, which I use sparingly to minimise waste.
