Here is another bird in the series – Microcosm Oystercatchers. These are one of my favorite birds. I often see them in the black basalt cobbles on the coast with their fluorescent beaks. I had a hard time with where I wanted to go with this piece initially and went back to gaskets (something I often find a way to include in my art). My #Wccchallenge coding group is working on microcosms and so this was the result of my creative process in contemplating both birds and microcosms.
