Add some joy to your décor with this handmade bird sculpture, celebrating the British countryside.
This paper sculpture depicts a great spotted woodpecker. He is covered with hand cut feathers, cut from handprinted papers. I use traditional printing methods such as monotype and screen printing to ensure his colour palette and patterns are unique to him. He is made entirely from paper, and his construction also dictates that his posture is one of a kind, so each of my sculptures have their own distinct personality. He is one of a kind. His feet are paper wrapped steel wire, making him rather sturdy on his big toes, and he has shiny black eyes. He stands unaided on any flat surface.

Great spotted woodpeckers have long been a favourite of mine, with their bouncing flight and their ability to seemingly hang from any surface! A resident to most of the UK, you can usually hear them before you spot them, thanks to their distinctive call.

Welcome to the paper sculpture menagerie. My name is Kate and I make handmade paper sculptures to bring cheer to your décor. Every one of my pieces is one of a kind, made from recycled 300 gsm paper (really sturdy cardstock). Each design is tested for durability, and they are varnished with a UV protective lacquer to seal their edges and protect their vibrant colours. Each sculpture is designed, individually printed, cut, assembled and embellished entirely by hand to make sure each and every one has its own unique character. Birds are my most favourite subject. I also make flowers and other wildlife. I am inspired by countryside walks and garden visitors. I often describe myself as a seasonal maker, as I can often be found at my desk making cosy pieces in the autumn and bright, cheerful blooms in the summertime. I’ve been making my sculptures for over 15 years now, and my work aims to evoke the joy I find in the great outdoors. I do hope they make you smile.
