Bull and Bird show_depth If you’ve been with usIn our Cecil Court gallery A slightly exotic bird sits on the back of a bull. Im constantly experimenting with ways of stylising and creating my creatures while still retaining character. This bull has a head resembling a mask. Bull and bird get along with each other very nicely and the delicacy and scale of the bird contrasts with and amplifies the solid strength of the bull.
