Nikki YZ – Featured Artist
I recently ventured onto Instagram (yes, yes I know I’m behind the times) and I ran across an amazing artist named Nikki YZ. I love her wire wrapping work and I had always wondered how The Face would look wire wrapped. So one thing led to another and Nikki created an amazing wire wrapped piece using The Face. I think the results were fantastic and I’m excited to see what she comes up with next. Here is a bit about Nikki below and images of her work. If you’d like to find out more about Nikki’s work you can visit her on Etsy at YZFLOW.etsy.com You can also follow her on Instagram.
How do you choose a theme?I really don’t choose it , when ideas come in mind , I just give it a try.What motivates you?The challenge. When I think about I’m going to turn these simple wires into interesting pieces ,it motivates me. It can be quiet challenging but it’s the drive .How do you make your art?I wire wrap things and turn them into wearable pendants.Why do you use certain materials?I use bare copper and silver wire , but most of time I use copper because it is low cost , That being said it literally offers me opportunity to make unique creations without spending an arm and leg.
