Maud O'Reilly was one of L.J. Harvey's students who furthered her skills by studying wheelthrowing and glazing when she visited London in 1925. She made her kookaburra statuette in Brisbane and in 1926 produced numerous casts, one of which was exhibited at the Royal Academy, London the same year. The auction of these casts has given her a considerable profile in recent years.
