Over some period of months or years, even, I have been collecting metal objects that I pick up from the ground. I decided it was time to see what could be made of them.
I bought wire at the craft store and used some that I already had on hand. I pushed the metal pieces around, trying to find a look I liked, and then I started putting things together.
Here’s the whole array, to remind you:
Next, I got the idea to draw them. I used the photos that I had taken of them as you see above.
Here they are in my 8″ x 8″ sketchbook done in pen.
What fun little steampunky people you have created. Your portraits of them are fabulous too.
Thank you. This was a one-off (or I’ll do it again once I accumulate more materials which will take time) impulse kind of thing and I am surprised how it turned out.
Creative surprises are wonderful.
They look either futuristic or prehistoric. (K)
There are cycles, and things go and then return. Over and over. Sure seems like that to me, anyway.
I just love these!
Thank you. I am already collecting metal for more…
I’m so happy to see that you’ve drawn them – wanted to ask, didn’t want to be nosey. They’re fun and fascinating. I think they’d be wonderful subjects for paintings…🤗
