Using wire sculptures

Earlier today I started to think about what was said in my tutorial about capturing the negative space of my wire sculptures. I started by attempting to flick paint through one of my sculptures, but unfortunately this really did not work! I also tried using a sponge to do this but likewise it was not that effective. I then just picked up a paint brush and painted through the gaps. This worked reasonably well and so I did this a number of times. I do think that I possibly need to do something with this painting though instead of just having it by itself.

When doing my painting I thought about making some rubbings of my wire sculptures. I thought that this would be quite interesting and after doing so I am happy with the outcome. There seems to be a lot of movement within this rubbing and it has encouraged me to revert back to an old idea that I had about making some wire sculptures of a moving figure.
