Steve Weaver Life-size Belted Kingfisher

Steve Weaver (b. 1950) Sandwich, MA, 1995 10 in. long, 20 in. tall

Weaver's art studio overlooks a scenic Cape Cod pond, giving the maker opportunities to study this entertaining bird. Kingfishers are unlike most bird species in that males feature more drab plumage. This female shows distinct bright red feathering on her underside. This grand Weaver carving is among his very best works to ever be offered.

Signed and dated by the artist on the underside of its base. The branch bears the maker's incised initials. In very good original paint with minimal wear.
