TREE-CLIMBING NUTHATCH --CERAMIC SCULPTURE
This lifelike little nuthatch has the ability to cling to a tree trunk or a wall, thanks to a hole in its underbelly which can be hooked over a finish (headless) nail hammered into a tree, fence, or woodwork. It is designed to hang head downwards, looking out at the world. Begun on a potter's wheel, then altered as it dried, the glaze was brushed on and it was fired to cone 7 in my gas kiln. Then its wire feet were twisted, coated in rubber, and attached. They're bendable!
