Written Reflection:

3. I chose my glasses for my object to sculpt my hand. My glasses or shades are one of the things I wear every single day, no matter what kind of day it is. I just think that putting on some simple or fancy pair of glasses can make my normal outfit more interesting.   By putting my favorite pair of glasses on this wire hand shows the beauty of both objects. The little bent of the hand lifting the lightweight glasses gives out a gentle and delicate feeling of the sculpture.

4. It was really hard at first because I bought the wrong wires. I thought I could still make it but it got me so frustrated to the part that I couldn’t continue it. After searching for the right wire through different Blick store in the city, I finally found the perfect one. When I start using the right wire everything afterward went very smooth. I sketched and planned out the whole design I want on paper and started working on the hand without a single hesitant. Patience is the only thing I learned in this project. If you don’t have patience, everything like the portion of the hand and the balance of it will go wrong.

5. I really enjoyed the process of making the wire hand since I’ve never worked with wires before, and considering my first time working with wires and pliers, I absolutely loved the result of my wire hand. For improvement, I wish I can work on the details of the hand a little bit better, like sculpting the knuckles or veins a bit more obvious.
