The Flower and Parrot Set of Three
These are one of a kind handmade pieces.
I have always loved to travel, and thankfully my career has afforded me ample opportunity to spread my wings over the past four decades. On one particularly magical trip to Puerto Rico, I came across a company of magnificent parrots in the wild. This was the first time in my life that I had seen such exotic creatures outside of a zoo setting, and they left an indelible mark on me at the time.
Years later, I was reminded of that chance encounter when I came across Edward Lear’s truly magnificent “Book of Parrots”. His style is as exuberant and exotic as the parrots themselves, and I looked to capture it with this magnificent example of his work.
On the largest piece of the set the parrot is so colourful that he had to be ‘hidden’ behind an equally strong colour, so I choose an image of the pink coneflower from Kew Gardens. The other two vases echo the vibrant colours with other exotic birds and vegetation. The deep pink interiors of the vases pop.
This set is for someone who loves strong colour and images - and really must have a pink parrot in their life!
