Hand built, burnished, painted and waxed stoneware clay + timber plinths.

From left to right: Daisy (820mm H x 250mm W x 110mm D), Poppy (792mm H x 300mm W x 110mm D), Violet (805mm H x 225mm W x 110mm D) and Lily (750mm H x 315mm W x 110mm D). Representing all birds, but none in particular, these girls are loosely based on the many chickens I have kept over the years, all of whom had very different personalities.

Daisy is just a little bit shy, but good natured and kind, and the first to point out tasty treats. Poppy likes to be the centre of attention. Bold and flamboyant, she knows who she is and isn’t afraid to show it! Violet is rather prim and proper, a stickler for the rules and not one to share her perch. Lily is a gentle soul, quiet and contemplative. Happiest pottering through the leaf litter.
