This vibrant yellow and green budgie is a one-of-a-kind paper sculpture, hand-printed and covered with hand-cut paper feathers. I hand print the papers I use, so his markings are unique to him. His entire body is feathered, with black and white cheek details and strong, paper-wrapped steel wire feet. His eyes are shiny black faceted beads.
He measures 25 cm (10 inches) from beak to tail tip.
Budgies are one of my favourite birds, and I love adding their cheek details. No two have ever had the same markings. I recently had an order from an American gallery, and it took me a moment to realise our budgies are what they call parakeets! My favourite budgie fact is that their eyesight is so spectacular that they can process over 150 images per second. Humans, by comparison, can process up to 16! These yellow and green colours represent the original hues of the first budgies imported to Britain.
