DEB HUGLIN VOGEL: Hi, I'm Debbie "The Roboteer," and I'm here for Expert Village. And we're making a wire sculpture of a lizard in a style that Sandy Calder taught me where it's all one piece of wire. Right now, we've made the head and the eyes and the neck. And here, we're making the arm and this is the long toes, and now we're going to wrap and make the legs. So we're going to do a careful wrap where I'm holding the wire as it comes up then we're wrapping the body. And when we get to the elbow, we're going to go around it a couple of times, real tight in, and make a little bump on the end because they kinda have--their elbow sticks out of it. And then we're going to go back and wrap the arm. Now, I'll do a little twist here, and we're ready to go to the next arm. Here's the shoulder. We'll just bend it over and cheat to be able to make the same thing. Here's the elbow. Then we're going to go down here to the foot and then we're going to make nice, long toes.
