Selected Citations and Comments

Painted blue and yellow, its soaring wingspread suggests lightness with strength. So much steel sculpture simply sits there. In comparison, graceful Scatwell seems about to take off.

Harold Haydon, 'Galleries - Imperfect Finish Can Be Beautiful', Chicago Sun-Times, 1st May 1970

Made by the blacksmith Jimmy Sinclair.
