Linear Materials Exercise

 

These exercises were designed to help us work better with linear materials. Using yarn, cardboard, and wire, I outlined the silhouette of a cat. For the yarn cat, I used Elmer’s glue to glue down the white yarn and just filled in the body to add some texture. For the cardboard cat, I used hot glue to fasten the bent cardboard pieces and added a simple squiggly line inside to add a bit of texture. For the wire cat, I used 16 gauge wire to bind two cats together and bent the feet to show that it’s walking and to help it stand on its own. My favorite exercise I did was the cardboard because I felt it was easily to manipulate and held down well with the glue.
