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.

HI! My name is Sierra Machado and I am a public school art teacher in Oklahoma. I spent the first six years of my career teaching at a visual art magnet program at a high school in South Carolina. I then spent six years at an intermediate school in Oklahoma, and now I'm back teaching high school. I am excited to be in my 16th year in art education.
My website https://thatartteacher.com/ has full length lesson plans, free tutorials, student examples and resources for artists that want to create at home or in the classroom.
