These area few examples to give you a sense of the style of small nests that I do. I have many more--some very soft and abstract, others more detailed and realistic. Colors range from deep brown to light green as a general rule. Most of them are empty, but occasionally I will add a hatched egg.

A nest to me is all about hope. Everything alive in this world builds some form of nest, however spare, to birth its young. We humans have taken that one step further. We also build them in our hearts to birth our dreams.
