Wire Figure Sculptures This is one of my favorite sculpture lessons of all time! We learn about human proportion, and then use the human body to explore expression through movement. I prefer (as do my students!) 14 gauge aluminum wire and we staple them to painted wooden bases. Free full length tutorials, a lesson guide, and student examples are on my website. #thatartteacher #arteducation #inmyartclass #artteacherlife #highschoolartteacher #iteachart #wire #wireart #figuresculpture #3dart | Tha

Wire Figure Sculpture This is one of my favorite high school sculpture lessons, the results are always amazing. This is a quick tutorial on how to use wire to create a wire figure, but I have a long form lesson guide and video tutorial on my website. My students sketch the human body before we start with wire and we learn about typical human proportions. If you want to make it a little easier, have your students do a one inch scale and trace their wire of a printed drawing of the human form. #th
