Martins Over a Crescent Moon

Similar but different to House Martins Touching the Moon – these Martins Over the Moon will be based on the purple Martin of the USA.

.

A special and moving way to celebrate the life of someone who has passed on and to remember them.

Designed for a vista and commemoration area of a garden in New Mexico – we have cast some wax Martins and the Crescent Moon in Wax.

Here is the Garden View with the Martins over the Moon concept  – which will be set into the client’s granite rock.

After all the changes to the birds to achieve the Purple Martin – At last the cast bronze bird sculpture  with the different colour tones of the male and female birds

How the crescent moon and birds appears in the evening light.

Details of the head and beak shape of the Purple Martin Male.

Lovely differences of the feathers of the backs of the birds.

Such a privilege to help commemorate a Special person and his family
