birds and dinosaurs

I finally took some better pictures of my dinosaurs.



And, I finished the big bird I've been working on. 22 inch wing span, oh yeah!


With these birds and dinosaurs, I feel more like I'm making sculpture than design. I think I've been trained not to make objects that don't preform a function, but I've always found value in things that somehow made me feel good, even if this wasn't necessarily a function they were meant to preform. So, the sole function of these objects is mood improvement? Eh?
