I have created hundreds of wire trees over the years, but can no longer do it. For the first time ever I will be teaching how I created wire trees.

In this class you will learn to twist and shape a wire tree. I will demonstrate different ways to form trees and branches as well as how to attach them to a base. We will be using copper wire to form small trees in class, but I will also talk about how to make larger trees. The first week of class we will rough out the shape of our trees and attach them to a base. The second week we will be forming our branches. The final week we will be finishing off the end of our branches and refining our sculptures. This class is open to all skill levels.
