There was something about a picture made of feathers on one of the Antiques Roadshows recently I seem to recall, but I can't remember what they said about it.
Cheers!

Thanks Anne...hope it comes back to you...lol. 

I find the *darnest* things don't I.  i just buy what catches my eye.  Good thing I have had the time here at home to be posting things, or otherwise these things would still be just sitting here...

I found these on E-bay (150211575092 ) but they do look much less professionally made...Similar, but the ones I posted (seem) to be a higher quality (in my opinion) and use more feathers in detailing....more complex than these ??  These look cheaper made than mine....(my opinion, solely..)

Modify:  Just found this site http://pages.bettyannsantiques.com/8271/PictPage/3923228048.html#images

Says they are vintage (1950-1960), and a bit more colorful...

It might come back Rose, and then again... ::)

Those Mexican Folk Art ones look very much like, don't they? Aztec traditional art it says - fascinating!
Cheers!
