For one of our breadth pieces, we did nature artwork. I thought it would be neat to make a bird of of nature. I formed a bird out of clay, and used it as a model to form this bird out of wood chips. I collected cups of wood chips and picked out which ones would be useful for the body form. As I was adding wood chips to form the wings, I realized it needed a more feathery texture. I used helicopter leaves for the wings, and twigs for the feet. I enjoyed this project because I got to use a different material besides clay.
