I’m late I’m late, Alice heard the Rabbit say as he rushed past her.

The dress of this torn paper Bird I found in the feathers of the head in the drwaing:  Portrait of Marie Botkin (1900) a red chalk, charcoal and pastel drawing by Odilon Redon.

As I made the Bird it seemed to me the feathers looked like a dress whose skirt dances while she runs. I gave her a dark mask I thought she should go to a Ball.

A rather mysterious and kinky Ball I guess because the eyes of my Bird are a little empty.

All the Birds I make are unique, there is only one of each.
