“Big Bird”
Big and beautiful with green Celtic knots showing off this flag shaped vision. She is showing off her tail feathers in green and gold and her under feathers are shades of purple and gold. Her body is made up of lovely pink and purple and gold and orange adorn the neck. Gold locks in this image with four blocks and copper them and the extraordinary knotwork at the bottom of this piece.
