“A striking evidence of man’s faculty of transforming himself into a devil, if he will only, for a reasonable space of time, undertake a devil’s office.”
Chillingworth, finally finished. I’m going to keep making things from the antique bodice he’s constructed from until there is nothing left at all.
Find the sewing pattern to make a your own dastardly owl here.
he’s dreamy in a lovely scary sort of way. is he for sale now? 🙂
Ohhh…he is so cool!
I’ve always liked your birds, and wanted a ship – but I LOVE him! I wish he could be mine, but I look forward to seeing what else you’ll make with the bodice.
The eyes are amazing! Really, really great!
He’s a beauty! In a glorious dark and twisty way —
He is wonderful. So full of character.
Amazing. The eyes are perfect. Just stumbled upon you blog – wonderful stuff here. Enjoyed looking around.
he’s frightfully good!
(i live in killingworth, which we occasionally call chillingworth, for a number of reasons!)
“Chilly” to his friends? That is awesome.
Ann, I don’t know what it is about your owls but I am absolutely in love with them. I am not particularly fascinated by dark scary things but I think it is the size, shape and features of the owls that I like so much. I do hope you keep making them. They are a treat to look at.
What a beautifull animal… It makes me dream. It’s fuul of poetry. Bravo !

How perfect to now have an image of Chillingworth to go along with the story.
This really is gorgeous – I was speechless when I first saw the photo. I love that you made him out of an antique bodice – and that you named him! I stumbled upon your site this evening, your work is really beautiful.
I happened upon your site and absolutely love Chillingworth. What an amazing creation!
Ann, he is utterly and completely amazing. A little chill ran up my spine when I saw him.
I’m fall in love….
He has such a sense of gravity about him. Beautiful use of materials. I love your work- it astonishes me.
He’s beautiful! I love him…will he be up for sale on Etsy soon?
I love this owl! He reminds me of Poe’s Raven crossed with Sam the Eagle… But I think he’d have a british accent. “Nevermore? Oh, no. There will always be more… (Sinister laugh)”
My niece will love this. She so into a series of books about owls, The Guardians of Gahoole. I might get this one for her, a great companion to her books.
What wonderful work! Well done!
Love him! He looks like an owl bouncer or bodyguard or secret service agent 🙂
