This paper sculpted hummingbird is made out of hand cut paper that is hand painted. Each little feather was meticulously cut out by hand, using the finest art papers. It takes many hours to carefully cut out all those tiny little feathers and to attach them to the hummingbird’s body. After all the feathers are attached, the bird is then painted in watercolor and gouache. The bird is attached to a metal rod inside the glass dome.
Hummingbird measures 4” from his beak to his tail. 6.75” wood base. Glass dome with the base measures 9” in height.
