Hello! My name is Dan Bell and I am an artist and sculptor living in south-east Cornwall. I have been working in wire for at least 20 years. I really like working with wire, it's a great medium to work with. It can be very tough on your fingers if you do too much but once you break through the blisters barrier it's totally worth the effort.
I really like making sea monsters and cephalopods and other sea creatures with the bits of sea glass and other things that I find on my travels. I have made a few octopi and squids and am definitely going to make more.
I have taken some time away from sculpting in wire to pursue new skills in animation and digital art. This has been a lot of work but extremely enjoyable. I am nearing the end of degree course and I am now able to go in my own direction and diversify my art again. Rather than consentrate on animation full time, I can branch out into other art forms again.
Thanks for visiting my website.
