For those of you that visited Muncaster Castle last Summer, you may
have been lucky enough to see something quite unique.
Peter Coe was asked by
the World Owl Trust to demonstrate a rare talent; painting bird
portraits directly on to feathers! For one weekend, visitors to Muncaster
Castle could see Pete create these wonderful works of art.
Due to the public
response from these paintings, The World Owl Trust and Peter Coe
have joined forces to offer a selection of unique gifts that are now
on sale. The first is a Hand Crafted Clock with a stunning face
painted and designed by Peter Coe. The clocks are all hand-made and
are available in a variety of finishes.
 Pete
has also been working hard over the Winter months by creating more
bird-on-feather paintings; this time however Pete has been painting
on owl feathers, donated by the World Owl Trust - The staff
at the World Owl Trust have been helping Pete by collecting the owls shed
feathers, allowing Pete to create beautiful one-off works of art
that you will never see elsewhere.
A selection of Pete's
feather paintings have been shown at several Art exhibitions in
Cumbria over the past year, the result of which ended up with each
one being sold. To find out more about Pete's unique paintings please don't
hesitate to request more information using the
