Bending Basics: Part 1

After a few delays due to my day job, the first installment of the Bending Basics micro tutorial series: is ready for viewing. In this tutorial series I decided to start from the beginning, with what I consider to be the absolute essentials of wire sculpting. Are you ready to meet the Pliers?

Back on for Tuesday

After much delay, I am back online. I have been quite busy these past two weeks or so, but not with wire sculpture. I will release the tutorial this Tuesday. Expect a small update on Wednesday, as I get back into the groove of sculpting and posting. I also plan to take part in NaNoWriMo, so updates may be sparse this November.

Technical Difficulties

Dear followers and friends,

my main internet is down, and will not be back up and running until next week. As such, Tutorial Tuesday is delayed until next week. Update Wednesday is also postponed, and will return as a double feature next week.

Thanks for understanding,

A Door to My Mind's Eye.

This video provides a window into the rudimentary sort of image that I visualize when I begin work on kinetic sculptures. Outside of scaling for miniatures, I tend not to do any sort of work with pencil and paper; instead, I opt to work out the nuances of my sculptures in wire, because my mental images tend to be three dimensional, and I find it much easier to translate a three dimensional visualization into to three dimensions, than trying to construct a three dimensional component from a two dimensional paper drawing.
