3D LINE REQUIREMENTS

• Sculpture must be able to hang and project off
  wall.
• Sculpture must be abstract.
• Abstract- to summarize, to condense, take away,
  remove, steal, distort. Artwork that may be
  inspired by objects in nature but is distorted in
  a way so it does NOT resemble actual reality.
• Length of line must be between 3 and 4 feet.
• Thickness of line must be 3 inches in the largest
  section and 1 inch or below in the thinnest area.
• Direction of line should vary.
• Design can be inspired by earlier 8 emotion
  sketches and/or real objects such as the one seen
  in this slide show.
• Color is free choice but remember color should
  keep the sculpture abstract but not resembling
  real objects.

3D LINE SCULPTURE PROCESS

• Use wire to create an armature. Bend, cut and
  tape more wire together to get the correct length
  and direction for your sculpture. Armature
  usually wire, cardboard or some hard material
  used to place a wet material ( clay, plaster) on
  top of in order to hold its shape.
• Wrap newspaper and tape around the wire to
  thicken area-remember some areas must be 3 inches
  wide.
• Entire armature (wire) must be covered in
  newspaper-including thinnest area.
• Wrap entire sculpture in plaster gauze. Cut small
  strips of gauze and dip in warm water. Wrap wet
  gauze around wire armature and make smooth and
  neat while still wet.
• Paint free choice-remember color choice should
  be abstract.
