For the first time this session, my entry is one day late. It proved to be much more challenging to construct, as I kept changing my mind about what I wanted it to look like.
This piece also doubles as my entry for the Etsy Wire Artisan Guild‘s April theme “Kaleidoscope”. The technique is drawn from a tutorial written by Perri Jackson, a friend and very talented wire artist who makes very intricate pieces from very thin gauge wire. Ever since Perri asked me to test the tutorial for her, I’ve been mulling over an idea in my head for a piece that adapts the technique. I’m not ready for that project yet, but “Kaleidoscope” is an intermediate step.
Perri’s blog features more of her spectacular work, and is well worth the visit.
