The vigilant raven stretches her wings as she oversees her territory.
I am enthralled by birds, and enjoy the challenge of turning flat fabric into 3-D creatures. Once I'm sure the bird is sturdy and balanced, I surrender control and proceed on instinct.
As I test and reject various embellishments, the bird’s personality emerges. It's almost as if the bird is telling me who it is, and I am simply the obedient conduit. The result is often as much a surprise to me as it is to the viewer.
