So, I'm meant to be making a malevolent Twitter bird: an indictment of a gossip fuelled society where people's lives can be destroyed by a 140 character tweet.
I wanted my bird to have the evil presence of this brilliant one by Ann Wood:
Evil? I fear not. Still I'm quite chuffed that I made it from scratch (including the pattern) and, regardless of how it's failed as an art work, I do still rather like it.
I met my friend in the street when I was carrying him and her reaction was: 'Oh, it's so sweet, can I have it for my bedroom'.
I've yet to paint the feet and put sticks and stones in the nest, which will no doubt result in more cuts on my hands like I got today from moulding the chicken wire. Never mind, perhaps a bit of fresh blood will begin to build that desired sense of cruelty.
