Turtle Wire Sculpture

This turtle wire sculpture is made from one continuous strand of 16 gauge steel wire. Each piece is handmade so the dimensions will vary. Sculpting with wire allows me to define form and imply movement as each piece becomes a dynamic drawing in space. Because I sculpt with steel wire, this piece may oxidize and develop a rust patina. If you prefer to protect your piece from rust, a light coating of a clear spray varnish may be applied. I avoid the use of paints and solvents and I try to reuse packing/shipping materials. It is my hope that my work reflects my love of the natural world and that my methods are kind to the environment as well. Best wishes- Bud Bullivant
