These pieces are my sculpted thread versions of five species of bird feathers found throughout New Zealand. Studied from actual feathers I have found from offshore islands I was volunteering at, west coast beaches, and from hiking through native forests. I'm always on the lookout for new, interesting feathers I can re-create.
