Spring Chickadees - Art Tile

$115.00

 

"Among all the springtime visitors to our garden, the lively chickadees are our favorite. Always chattering 'chick-a-dee-dee-dee', these tiny birds never seem to tire and amuse us with their playful acrobatics!"- artist Yoshiko Yamamoto

Artist Yoshiko Yamamoto is a self-taught block printmaker who strives always to fuse Japanese design sensibility with fine craftsmanship. Several years ago, Nawal Motawi, a longtime admirer of Yoshiko's work, approached her for a collaboration. Motawi thought Yamamoto's bold prints would work well as a raised-line tile design. She was right. Yamamoto's graceful, swaying scenes brought the clay to life.

The actual tile size is about 6" x 6". As each Motawi tile is crafted by hand, dimensions may vary slightly. Each tile is about .5" thick and has a notch on the back for hanging.
