Shorebird I – Heritage Series Cottonwood and Copper Art

A piece of heritage, thoughtfully shared.

This one-of-a-kind mixed media art piece pairs found cottonwood bark with a hand-formed copper shorebird, hand-enameled with color. 

Part of the Heritage Series, the cottonwood bark used in this piece was gathered from trees planted decades ago on Liz’s family farm. Once serving as windbreaks for the home place, the trees are now beginning to naturally break down, offering an opportunity to preserve their story in a new form.

Artisan details:

• Found cottonwood bark
• Handcrafted copper shorebird with hand-applied enamel color of dove white, goldenrod and soft black
• Size approximately 5"W x 5"H x 2"D
• Mixed media art, designed for setting
• Story card included
• One of a kind

Made one at a time by hand in our Fargo studio.
