Last week I mentioned Princess Nagger was working on some sort of report for her Gifted Class on Cockatiels and made one out of clay.  As a reminder, here’s what it looked like before she did the final paint job:

Here it is all finished:

She did a great job, didn’t she?  It looks a lot less ‘vicious’ now that it’s all painted pretty.  I had her pose with it so you could get an idea on the size of it a little better:

There were quite a few goofy poses along with accidentally-on-purpose getting that one.  And she insisted I take a picture of her in this pose:

As I was taking pictures of it in the cage, she put her giant yellow angry bird behind to keep an eye on things:

All set and ready for her presentation:

Last night was her Curriculum Fair at the school where this project was set up amongst her classmates projects.  I’ll share pictures of all that fun hopefully next week.  While taking pictures of her project, I was able to snag this mug shot:

Beautiful, smart, mischievous and dorky all wrapped into one package.  I couldn’t have asked for a better kid if I had special ordered one.

  7. I am so impressed! You’re right, it does look less scary post-painting. 🙂 And I love the Angry Bird. Totally makes the whole scene.

  8. Ha, she reminds me SO MUCH of Punky – especially that “fancy” pose with the bird.

    And yea, that was one scary critter before she painted it.
