Copper Island Wire Tree Sculpture

Copper Island Wire Tree Sculpture
Created using 26 and 28 gauge bare copper wire. 10"H x 10"W x 8"D. The ends of each of the 26 gauge wire is hammered flat creating delicate thin copper leaves. The root system winds its way down and is bonded into a mound of sand and pebbles. A triangular antique clay brick is interlocked in the root system and the mound. The mound is made of sea sand and pebbles and is painted in yellows and greens using India ink. All is set in a 7" round clay container that matches the color of the brick.
