Bart's wire wall art can introduce kids to line and form while sharing a bit of whimsy and love of different images.

Children's Room Wall Art

After creating many portraits, I explored the possibility of making multiple images to capture the emotional effect of a larger scene.  My  first mural that I made was of my grandchild dancing around outside next to our meadow.  She had just woken up, dressed quickly and ran outside to twirl and run around, greeting the morning. She was my inspiration to capture more scenes of life.

Murals, Welded Metal Wall Sculptures

It wasn't long after I began to draw using wire as a medium, that I was drawn to children as my subjects.  I have six grandchildren and I took many photographs of them as they played outside and used these photos as inspiration for my art.

Children 

Of all my wire subjects, women are  ideal for wire sculpture. Wire lends itself to the soft curves of a women’s body.  Drawing in wire also makes it easier to personify the essence of a women using the least amount of lines. Depending on the pose I can choose a variety of styles:
abstract, figurative, representational, Degas, Modigliani, Picasso, Cezanne and more.  I hope the nudes are some of your favorite art.  Bart Soutendijk
