bird & brush: cape series #9 || child of air
From the moment of my birth, the Wind sang songs to me of what it is to be fierce & free & if I forget, she comes along again & touches my skin to remind me.
- average dimensions: 4.5" W x 5.5" H x 7/8" D
- painted by Kai, art inspired in January 2023, Cape Cod
- painted by hand with our unique bird & brush process (5 layers of paint, ink, & graphite - including a hand written wish written between layers), so there will be variations
repurposed & handcrafted...
We have the deep joy of working with incredibly beautiful wood, sometimes from trees that are hundreds of years old... This means every piece that leaves our studio carries along its own history & is entirely unique.
The wood species will vary according to what we can source from local small businesses that share our ethos.
All our reclaimed wood products are made to order - shaped, sanded & waxed here in our studio. Woodcuts are done freehand. Unless stated otherwise, painted pieces have our unique bird & brush process: 4-6 layers of paint, graphite & ink (including a secret hand written wish between layers).
Our wood pieces come with a small card telling a bit about us & the piece, & are either wrapped in repurposed pages from old books or in an organic cotton bag.
