The Fall of Spring Print

Inspired by the birth of our daughter this is a portrait of my wife with her wild hair full of blue birds as she clasps one in her arms that has been killed by an arrow. This sculpture was my reflection of a need to let go of our old selves when our child came into our lives. One joy has ended but others are still to come, they crowd round her head singing to their sister's memory. Made from oil paint on resin with attached birds and a steel arrow, this piece has threaded inserts underneath and can easily be bolted from beneath to a surface for secure fixing.
