The material has worked pretty closely to what I anticipated. I did several sketches initially. This is the one I went along with.
I'm pretty content with the results. Right now I am building off of the spiral base I built in class periods to add volume. I only had a vague theory of if that would work, and I'm glad it turned out.
The 'skeleton' is essentially spirals, so I am adding variety by adding other shapes and materials. I bought some colored string to weave into the metal. This is testing my knowledge of weaves and knots, but since that is a skill I hardly ever get to use, it is a fun challenge. There is repetition of the base pattern throughout the entire piece, however. I am attracted to fluidity.
