Tuesday Talent - Emily Sutton

Brambling
Here is a bird artist extraordinaire, Emily Sutton is a bird sculpture, printmaker and illustrator.  Catch more of her work at www.emillustrates.com, her print and illustrative style is shown wonderfully well on these, her embroidered birds.  She captures the character of the bird she is creating, they all have little personalities.  Her line is so good and the hand painting and stitching really represents the bird in a unique and charming way.  So good are they that you can always identify the species she is portraying.

Check out her website for more stunning and original pieces and have a wander around Google because some of her best pieces are not on the website.  The brambling is my favourite and he is only to be found on pinterest.  If I see just one brambling in winter I am very satisfied but sometimes we get a collection of these delightful visitors in a mixed bag with the chaffinches on cold morning and it makes my day.

In similar vein but quite distinct are Abigail Brown's wonderful bird sculptures, check out her owls which are just too cute and so appealing and for more decorative bird sculptures have a peep at Josephine Hague, her work is just so lovely.
