MARCH 30, 2010: "Thanks for the Wire TUTORIAL and LESSON PLAN"

Elizabeth Berrien, I wanted to send you a thank you note regarding your wire class tutorial . I found the article to be amazingly useful and I am very excited about my upcoming class teaching wire sculpture . I also wanted to say that I think your work is amazing. I have been working with wire for about a year now and i feel as tho Im progressing however your work has simply blown me away. I have been mostly wrapping wire but your use of line and space is astounding... Thanks, MG

MARCH 28, 2010: Coming Soon: Meet Elizabeth in Mendocino and Arcata!

Elizabeth joins Mendocino's "Second Saturday" celebration of the arts on Saturday, April 10th. She'll demonstrate her lacelike, ultra-complex and totaly unique wire sculpture technique from noon to 3PM, and from 5PM to 8PM for The Highlight Gallery's evening reception, with refreshments.

Later in April, Elizabeth will exhibit several wildlife wire sculptures at the Godwit Days International Bird Festival in Arcata, CA. Traditionally, Elizabeth enjoys working from life, as she studies and wires up Eagles, falcons, owls and other raptors brought by Humboldt Wildlife Care Center for eduational purposes.

MARCH 24, 2010: "Our Wire Sculpture Kitty"

Hello, Elizabeth ... We were in the Mendocino gallery a few days ago and totally enjoyed the display of your wire work. We have since looked at your website to see even more of your wonderful creations. My husband bought this one for me for my birthday. We thought there were a lot of characteristics in it that reminded us so much of our Maine Coon, Chelsea. We are enjoying seeing it on our wall now that we are home from our trip.

Do you have a book for sale with pictures of your wire art. I work at a school and the children often work with wire. Your artwork in a book would be fun for the children to look at... Thanks, Marilyn S

Marilyn, I hope to have the first book out this year. In the meantime, enjoy sharing my LESSON PLAN with your students - I'd love to see pictures of their creations in wire... Elizabeth

Ms Berrien:

I ran across your art work while searching for some information about Guy Pullen (who made marvelous Victorian wire houses during the '50s). When I started looking at your sculptures I forgot about finding Guy. The figures you create are interesting, entertaining and charming. I especially enjoyed the African Exotic and Whimsy & Weirdness sections. Thank you for a delightful evening. Mollie R, Coeur d'Alene, ID

And thank you, Mollie! Your kind words really give me a boost. I'd love to see Guy's images... are you out there, Guy?
