In 2000 I made
effort to make my first peacock cane. I love peacock feathers and despaired
that I could never do that in a cane. Well, I came to the realization that I
would never do this cane if I never gave it an effort. Looking at a peacock
feather I mixed clay and stacked sheets and it came out a bit of alright.
