Metal sculpture



These are some metal sample pieces that I have used to make my sample pieces, the goldish colour metal is called copper and the silver metal is called aluminiam. There both small squares and the copper is alot harder than the aluminum and when you heat the copper it becomes alot softer and easier to bend and make somthing out of it. These are my final sample pieces, I used different materials to make the shapes and patterns on the metals, i also poked holes through the metal.


These are lines of strips of copper that I cut up to turn them into a final piece. Then I used other materials to get a different feeling of how it might feel when you put circles in them and letters and small holes.


This is my final metal sculpture that I made by bending each of the copper strips of metal and then stuck it in place, making the form of the flower. 


This is another picture of the sculpture but in a different angel which shows the forms of the sculpture.

Drawings of shells with pencils



These are drawing of shells and the shells on the side. I took pictures of each of the shells that I was using to draw them. I first started to draw the outlines of each shape and then added on the detail of the shells and later I started to add some tone in some of the areas to make the drawings look more of a 3D form. These drawings of shells are on a A2 piece of paper.
