Customise your owlet!

Since the dapper set of owls I made for Manchester Central Library I have been mildly obsessed with accessorizing my birds! It is such fun to do, I take great pleasure from making monocles and fancy hats. :)

 This is Ovid, in all his finery. He is currently in an exhibition at Ferrers Gallery called "On Paper".

This is Monocled Virgil and the very dapper Michelangelo sporting a cavalier hat! It is times like these I realize how lucky I am to have this kind of job. I love making things.

Graduation buddies!
Eventually I hope to make an owl for every occasion! :)

I have had a few personalised wedding commissions, which is always fun. Customers seem to be rather enjoying designing themselves in owl form! :)

And it's not just the little guys having all the fun:
