Description Kookaburra commission.

He's such a friendly guy!

Width: 40cm
Length: 35 cm
Depth: 15 cm

CD shards (over 40 CDs used )
Wire mesh frame
Hot glue
Gold paint


I use kitchen scissors to cut the shapes I need out of the CDs, then arrange each shard by colour and size. I then hot glue those shards one-by-one to a wire mesh frame to create a natural feather pattern. They usually take a week to make, maybe longer depending on how motivated I am to get them done!
