After an afternoon with other artists and writers – and lots of coffee – I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s not the wire that fascinates me so much, it’s the drawings I make that I use as a plan to bend the wire. Sure, the wire adds a whimsical aspect to the art, and it allows me to make really big illustrations. It’s the drawing, however, that I make on a cocktail napkin, or the margin in a book, or in the sand after it rains that I’m talking about. Add a limerick that’s relevant to the drawing and you’ve really got something.
