Plesiosaurus Flamingo - is a handcrafted garden dragon art sculpture using an upcycled plastic flamingo base, weather resistant finish quality copper paints, paper mache and recycled materials. Not your ordinary Lawn Flamingo!
'Nessie' Flamingo loves the beach and making friends although many of her new friends have a difficult time explaining that they have a dinosaur in their garden. Nessie is a small version of a very large Plesiosaurus because I couldn't fit the full size version in a cardboard box for shipping. Each Flamingo Incognito is alway slightly different as they are individually made when ordered. Each one is unique.
Plesiosaurus were large marine reptiles that lived during the Jurassic Period can now live again in your garden. Although there are modern myths surrounding this creature, such as the myth of the Loch Ness monster (Nessie), these dinosaurs are known to be extinct. It is distinguishable by its small head, long and slender neck, broad turtle-like body, tail, and two pairs of large, elongated paddles.
Underneath it all:.
Flamingo Incognitos are always one of a kind because they are handmade one at a time. Other than the basic pink plastic flamingo beneath it all there are no pre-made parts. Flamingo Incognitos are at heart, plain ol’ 1950’s, kitschy, pink plastic yard birds. They have been re-invented with household plastic leftovers, handmade assorted body parts, objects d’art from the studio junk drawer, used kids craft foam, waterproof glue, creative theatrical use of outdoor-friendly spray paint and large doses of imagination. The speckling is not glitter but a theater trick of speckling with paints. Some flames do contain glitter. The ultimate yard art, these flamingos are guaranteed to make people look twice or maybe three times!
Custom identity crisis flamingos are also available and price depends on how complex your imagination is; let’s talk. How about wedding birds, school mascots, a replica of great aunt Suzie, your boss, a Harry Potter interpretation, your pet pug or a wizard of OZ? Anything is possible, however please do not request copyrighted characters.
These birds have been tested in the Pacific Northwest weather. They come with separate metal legs for inserting into a garden, a potted plant or a window box. They are art pieces, not toys and not meant for children to play with. Although weather resistant, they are also not intended to survive the winter outdoors. Since they are, after all, tropical birds down deep. It is suggested that they be kept warm and dry during stormy weather. Care has been made to make sure colors do not fade (a UV coating) but it is not guaranteed due to the variety of parts used and severe weather conditions. They stand about 31 inches high.
They will be shipped in biodegradable materials or bubble wrap, in a flamingo sized recycled/recyclable cardboard box (big enough not to squish wings and things) by USPS parcel post. International shipping is USPS First Class. I usually ship on Mondays. Shipping costs will vary depending on where you live. Please allow 1 week to 10 days for delivery, of course you could get it within 10 days depending on the post office. If you have any questions, would like more than one or need your Flamingo sooner please email me.
