Black Throated Magpie Jay P08845-P00382 Sixteen tiny cast sterling silver

Sixteen tiny cast sterling silver figures are carrying twelve copper beads to pass the time in this whimsical metal clock sculpture

The moon is high in the translucent deep blue sky

The surface is worked to bring back the visual properties of the steel

Unifying lines and organic shapes complete the abstract composition

and brown accents or antique silver with soft nectarine

Black Throated Magpie Jay P08845-P00382 Sixteen tiny cast sterling silverInspired by the clever Blue Throated Magpie Jay, a bird known for its showy flight and its wily foraging, this poplar wood sculpture is carved on a bandsaw and painted with layers of latex enamel paint. Staying true to the coloration of the species, the work displays eye catching blue and white patterning as the Jay perches upon its carved wooden wheels. Signed by the artist Materials: Wood
