Oh! Sorry I didn’t mention that. This was done using a bronze ingot with an impression die in a hydraulic press. 😊 The impression die is a copy of an antique master die from Potter USA.

Day 11 of #ArtAdventCalendar.

A few years ago, I made some miniature bird sculptures out of clay. Painting this Woodcock was good fun - that cryptic plumage of their’s is beautiful! I love the warm russet tones.

Learning how to make ingots and use impression dies has been fun. The fact some of the designs are over 100 years old just adds to it. Shout out to Potter USA for sharing these beautiful pieces of history.

Snapdragons are my favorite flower to grow. They do however produce seed pods that look like the screaming skulls of the damned.

( Not my picture) Snapdragon seed pod dried on the plant. There are five pods that resemble tiny human skulls with open mouths.
