Discover 40 Sculptures I’ve Made From This Relatively Industrial, Unlikely Material
A bit about me...
I worked as a graphic designer all my adult life in sign design, computer graphics, hand-painted designs, TV set graphics, theatre set & prop design, and typography.
I always explored my own creativity away from the commercial work environment with drawing, painting, and sculpture, and since 2015 I have been developing my own interests at my Cathouse Gallery in Qualicum Bay. I am a member of the Federation of Canadian Artists and currently hold my AFCA, and I am an elected member of the Society of Canadian Artists.
I enjoy conte drawing from life and acrylic painting, but my favourite medium is sculpting with chicken wire, a surprisingly forgiving medium that provides me with endless opportunities to create. I love having the ability to breathe life into this relatively industrial, unlikely material.

These are...airy. They have a 'light look' to them. Very cool! I've worked with chicken wire before, and I feel very sorry for the skin on his arms and hands. No lie, that stuff CHEWS you up! ......................................................................I met a guy once who made sculptures with metal screen wire. Not only was the screen wire visible, but he also used lights to throw their shadows on the wall. The shadows were crazy great-looking. It's very hard to explain but it looked amazing. Sadly, this was 24 years ago so I don't remember his name, I hope he was successful, he was talented.
Every single one is inspiring, and every one is positively gorgeous.
