A little statement about this glass art from Tom | I reckon I’ve made more birds than anything else, I am beguiled by these elegant ancient weirdos. Some of the oldest blown glass was made in the shape of water-fowl, the ductile material perfect for the sininous neck - it's almost as if glass wants to be a bird.

Sunshower Owl has a garden on its brow, the strangeness of bright rain splits the spectrum. Ferny Dell because it’s cool and green, oscillating between goose and face. Visit here to see this bird.
