My Medicine Birds, are glass-blown vessels in the shape of various birds. For my person, birds are carries of spirit lessons and offer a gentle support that requires intentional contemplation. These containers although a bit fragile can hold liquids and dried materials used and replaced during healing rituals and treatments. Stable forms incased in resin are made upon request.
