FLIGHT OF FEATHERS
Sue has had a lifelong passion for collecting feathers and gives them a new lease of life by turning them in feather art.
That led to placing them into Perspex boxes to show off Australian bird feathers and some Peacock and Guinea Fowl feathers.
Now Sue creates handmade jewel boxes to display these found treasures and unique feathers for others to enjoy.
Many hours are spent sorting, cleaning and arranging feathers and hoping a breeze doesn’t flutter them away!
They are then artistically suspended in all their glory and ever so patiently arranged to best show their lustre, colour and texture in the most beautiful fashion.
The Perspex boxes are individually handmade by Sue with care and precision to the appropriate size for each creation.
Sue never knows what bird feathers will arrive. Local people have learned that Sue has this wonderful ability to reinvent these natural treasures to be a visual delight for all to enjoy.
