Copper Wire, But No Inspiration!

[RudeNastyAssBitch]

I Have Finally Pulled My Copper Wire Out Today, Thinking I Would Bend And Clip, Clip And Bend, But Have Not A Clue As To What To Make!

Any Ideas Or Suggestions?

If I Heat The Copper Up, Can I Pull A Bit Of The Blacksmith Moves On It, Like Flattening It Out?

How Much Heat Do I Need Fer That Sort Of Thing?

About room temperature. Copper is "malleable" which means you can hammer it into shap when cold.

regular heat will work.

I thought I was the only person around that was artistically challenged

Ouch, that really wasn't in context.
I'd love to see the results.
Who knows, you might even get Spinaroonie back on his feet again!!

Big Head People And Stick Folk Are All I Can Draw, But

PAinting, Photography And Sculpture Are In My Heart!

I Know I Can Do Something Great

The GO FOR IT!!

I thought most people started with clay....have you already progressed ripping out the guts of houses and creating art??


I'll stand aside. Those people with artistic talent are simply amazing to me. My best summer was touring parts of Europe with a friend who had an artistic side. I would describe what I saw and she would describe what she saw. It was amazing how differently we saw the same thing. It was like seeing everything from two different views at the same time. I loved it.

If the wire is thin enough then knit it. Then bend it into shapes. I have made sculpture baskets and wall panels with fabric strips running through the knitting that way.... I'd show you photos of them but stupid me sold them in an exhibition before I photographed them and I don't know where the sculptures ended up. I must make some more....
