It Has Come To My AttentionIt has come to my attention
that people like me

Third Bird Golemby `ursulav

Traditional Art / Paintings / Surreal

The third bird golem was made almost entirely of metal. Its wings gleamed very brightly, but it was too heavy to fly.

---------

Third of the rather peculiar Bird Golem series--doing a couple of these in preparation for an upcoming show (The Jordan Arts Center in Cary, NC, gallery opening the evening of August 4th, come one, come all!) They wanted bird golems. They're getting a mishmash of saints and oddities, but the majority will in fact be bird golems. I just, um, have to get them all painted.

Mixed media, 13 x 7.5 or thereabouts. Original is for sale, although it won't be delivered until AFTER the show. Prints available for $10 and $20 plus shipping. Send a note or visit [link] for details.
