Sweet Bird

waiting sandymartin iceresin

Here is my sweet Ice resin bird in her bronze nest.  I was inspired by this beautiful piece of wood.  I wanted to add something to it but I did not want to obscure the texture of the beautiful grain.  I cast this bird some time ago and she has just been sitting in my studio waiting for a place to land!  I colored the bird with gilders paste.  Keep checking the Ice resin blog for video posts on surface patinas for cast pieces.

  1. The cutest bird! And in the prettiest surroundings! :-)
    Someday you´ll have to teach me how to cast those ICEresin-shapes. Even though I took a course, I still haven´t really figured it out.
