The Bird Scholar is a hand-made rod-puppet. The head
and hands are sculpted using a polymer clay. There were no molds used in the construction of this piece.
The clothing is hand-sewn over a understructure that allows the puppet
movement. When the center rod is rotated the head will turn from side to side.
Each arm can be controlled and although a handful with three rods, two-handed manipulation
is possible. He does come with a customized wire hanger for ease of displaying.
If you are interested in this piece he is currently being displayed at the
Crystal Wizard Gallery in Gleneden Beach, Oregon.
Please contact them to inquire about his pricing and availability at: (541) 764-7550. They are open Wednesday
through Sunday.
Thank you!
