@hootalex That’s so beautiful. What is it made from?

@thebaywindowgirl Thank you!! It is cast in Hydrostone. The process was this more or less...

1. Draw profile silhouette of Whip-poor-will
2. "Inflate" silhouette in Illustrator
3. Get model 3D printed (at actual size!)
4. Create a silicone mold and cast in hydrostone
5. Paint!

@hootalex I love that it looks so much like your illustrations. Will you be making more?
