The figure is known only by the name Bird Mute. I hope viewers will enjoy faded colors and random assemblage of materials, including an old discarded aluminum pan and other items. Take a long look at the enigmatic, lightness and creepy, childlike ambivalence of execution. I used a flat pan I found on my property outside my log cabin as the base, then worked with watercolor paints, small canvas boards and marker pens to flesh out the vision of the dream quickly, before I would forget it.
