Portland Art Museum

On Tuesday we traveled to the Art museum to look at art work of animals. My favorite pieces were both 3D. The first one i saw was a pelican made from terracotta. The pelican had its wings curled up and it looked like it was in a ball. The sculpture had a lot of texture in the wings and on the face. The texture gave the piece much more form. The other piece i saw was a thunderbird made by Mark Sponenburgh. It was a very simple piece but use some unusual materials. The beak was a bull horn, the body was made from driftwood and the talons were from antlers.
