My 3D art professor has made no effort to teach us anything for a wire self portrait sculpture. This is much MUCH appreciated.

[@usernamemykel]

I don't know what I liked more - the video or the audio!
So I split the difference, "liked" and "subbed", just for the Halibut.
I think it was a Halibut - hard to tell...

[@conniebunke613]

I subscribed bassed on the whole video. :D

[@cchemmes-seeseeart3948]

A great video. Thanks.

[@goodgrape33]

super helpful! thanks :)

[@UnofficialEngineering]

Good job

[@baharehsaleh500]

Wow you are amazing well done 👍

[@artnow669]

Does it matter which metal the annealed wire is? I can't find it for sale easily in bulk like you show? It seems expensive..

[@UnitedArtAndEd]

Hi Art Now - the metal of the wire doesn't matter as much as the gauge. You'll want the armature strong enough to start, then the details can be added with thinner wire. You can purchase them here: www.unitednow.com/parawire-annealed-wire

How do you attach the sculpture to the base? Do you advise drilling a hole and filling with epoxy?

[@UnitedArtAndEd]

Yes, you got it right exactly!

[@fatimaraza_mua]

what type of paper did you use for the last sculpture?

[@UnitedArtAndEd]

Hi Fatima,
The last sculpture was made using tissue paper. Follow this link for instructions: www.unitednow.com/wire-basket-sculpture-project-180

I teach a wire assignment for college students and am wondering where to buy the wire you demonstrated? The dark stuff is at hardware stores, but not sure about the copper and tinned copper wire. I am thinking of switching to tinned copper to make it easier on my students’ hands 😊

[@UnitedArtAndEd]

Hi lauriehassold, you can find copper, tinned, brass and aluminum wire here: www.unitednow.com/art/ceramics-sculpture/sculpture/sculpture-wire

Terrific! Thank you!

[@kayc5015]

what kind of pliers do you use?

[@UnitedArtAndEd]

Hi Kayla, the pliers shown can be found in this set: www.unitednow.com/hometools-5-piece-tools-set

[@cjamir5cj]

You address the g. But I'm trying to understand the hardness and softness of the wire, in order that I can buy what I need.

[@UnitedArtAndEd]

All of the wires we've shown here (and offer on our website www.unitednow.com/art/ceramics-sculpture/sculpture/sculpture-wire) are soft temper. For this project, it's just important to create the initial armature with the smaller gauge and use highest gauge (thinnest) for the detailed wrapping.

[@silentprayers728]

How do you anchor wire so that it’s not loose when you use a thinner gauge wire and attach to your thicker structure? Even with pliers it’s too loose.

[@cchemmes-seeseeart3948]

Twist the wire tightly around the wire piece you are connecting it to; use pliers if needed, for heavier gauge wire that you can't wrap easily with fingers; & to get it tight, wrap around slowly, carefully, tightly, working it so you wrap it tightly. Then, after wrapping, they use pliers to squeeze the wrap tight- you can squeeze all the wrap around spirals together toward each other, plus then squeeze the wrap in general, to tighten it up by squashing it ; that is what I see in these videos.

[@deborahquartz753]

How much of each gauge do you need for 40 kids?

[@UnitedArtAndEd]

That will depend on a lot of variables. Our sculptures were approximately 7" tall; students may want to do smaller or larger. It also depends on how much detail they want to wrap into it. I'd suggest cutting 3 feet at a time, and creating your own sculpture to experiment to better get your expected measurements for the classroom. I'm not sure which wire you were considering, but the Dark Annealed is the most economical.

[@ThiagoOliveira-nl9is]

how to get your product

[@jazelpangilinan8583]

are this wires are "non tarnished" materials?

[@UnitedArtAndEd]

The particular wire we used here is an unfinished steel wire, and its color varies (may range from dark black to silver).

[@brendaluv2017]

Where can we get the wood block?

[@UnitedArtAndEd]

There are several size and shape choices here: www.unitednow.com/search?keywords=plaque

[@conniebunke613]

The coating on the annealed dark wire is why I don't like to work with it. Sorry.
