Pliers & Wires

That ever so clever name is courtesy of Ron (the person not the hamster); I love it and I am going to keep it and use it.

All right, so, I made a kite. It’s cute, it’s dainty. It’s pretty simple.

And, I made another one of Calder’s sculptures. He’s got some really great animals, which I can only aspire to. Right now I am finding it hard to come up with ideas, so when I want to make something but can’t think of what to do, I look to other people and things to inspire me.  This time it was this really neat elephant, which is made from a single piece of wire. I think it’s got some cool lines to it.
