Wire Masks
Twisted Faces formed by Twisting Wire
This is ME! I'm not for sale!

Twisting wire to create these line 'drawings' of people is cartoon art for me! Instead of spending more than 40 hours for a painting or spirit vessel, I can make a face in a few hours. I have found a whole new application for the contour drawing classes I took years ago in bending the line to create volume and expression out of copper or steel wire. The shadows try to fill their heads, but I don't think they add much substance or any brains! Maybe your imagination can!
About 12 inches high, these Twisted Characters look great hanging in small contemplative spaces, like the loo! I notice myself putting all sorts of ideas into their empty, twisted heads! |
