Heron
- Created: May 2024
- Medium: Copper / Handcrafted Wooden Base
- Note: A highly detailed piece, featuring a unique feather technique and a strikingly lifelike pose, capturing the heron moments before striking at fish beneath its feet.
One of Colin’s most detailed and ambitious sculptures to date, this heron embodies the grace and power of nature in action. The intricate featherwork, achieved through an innovative technique, brings a new level of realism to the piece.
The heron’s poised stance, with its gaze fixed on the fish swimming below, creates an intense and lifelike moment of suspense. The wooden base complements the sculpture, grounding it in a naturalistic setting.
Capturing motion in stillness—this was my goal with this heron.
