How would planning a sculpture be different then planning a

drawing?

Page 7: Sculpture

Difference in Planning

• A drawing is two dimensional

• A sculpture is three dimensional

• Does is have a function? If so, must consider this.

• How will you display it?

• Do you have the space to display it?

Ideas for materials to collect

Think of things that have the same basic shape or has a part of the shape of the bug.

Remember these things can be cut and manipulated to get a different shape.

For example:• Soda cans• Plastic bottles of varying shapes and sizes• Cardboard• Etc..
