I made this wading bird from new and vintage fabrics, including some more lovely Ikea fabric from my sister. I missed making these tall birds. I really like their form.
I added a ruff to the front.
This piece will be part of a show I'm having in April at Paper Boat. I will be showing with Amy Rice, whose work is so beautiful. All of my pieces will be free-standing soft sculpture for this show, and Amy's paintings will be on the walls. I actually will be having another show that month, too, for which I'll be making bird collages, but more details for that one will follow later.
