How Colzart DuxzArt started:
Having spent many years behind an office desk dealing with the general public it was time for change. Strolling through a furniture shop a group of raw wooden ducks caught my eye, I bought a couple, took them home, gave them a light sanding, out came the paints and paint brushes, and then my imagination was given the green light to create! With the idea of painting unrelated animal prints like zebra stripes, cowhide patterns, tiger & leopard spots on the ducks, they changed from “naked” to “not so naked” – I also love bright colours and unusual patterns. The Dux came alive and inspired me to create the Tuxedo duck or more precisely my “Duxedo Dux Series” silk bow ties and matching buttons were added - closely followed by the “Brux Dux Series” (bridal dux) brides are adorned with lace, pearls, veils, organza shawls and bridal garters. All Colzart Dux are unique hand-painted original designs finished off with a shiny coat of varnish for a long and happy life. Each Duck inspires me to create another one!
Thanks Col for introducing us all to Colzart Duxzart! I wish you all the best in the future x
