INTENTIONAL WIRE FORMING (SKETCHBOOK #4)

SKETCHBOOK #4

Now that you've experimented with the wire, and have formed your own ways of doing different things with it, you should attempt to intentionally form different shapes. For this sketchbook assignment form the following and then tape into your sketchbook:

1. Bumpy Line (make sure to pinch the wire together to form the points, and to pull apart and form the rounded curve)

2. Loopy Line (using just your fingers or attempt to wrap the wire around something else, to form a row of flattened loops)

3. Noose (loop your wire and then, using pliers, tightly wrap one end of the wire around the other)

4. Ring (Using the same wrapping technique as for the Noose, create a ring and then tightly wrap each end to secure)

5. Spiral (using your fingers and/or pliers, wrap your wire into a flattened spiral)
