Brenda Peo Wired art: Twisted Ponies

Magic Charm — Copper and steel wire sculpture by Brenda Peo, from her Twisted Ponies series
The zany wire horse sculptures by Brenda Peo came about without too much advance planning. “One day I had some extra wire and just started twisting. I have always painted and drawn horses. I call these three-dimensional scribbling,” explains Brenda.

She starts with copper wire and builds the inside of the horse and works outward from there, just making it up as she goes along. Different colored wire used for floral arrangements and beading were acquired by Brenda to make tabletop-size to a four-foot-high sculpture aptly named Twisted Ponies. Each wire horse has its own character and is appropriately named.

Brenda has been asked to do other animals, but horses are what she knows. When not creating wire sculpture or silver jewelry, she rides her Trakehner mare in the Arizona desert where she lives. Brenda Peo exhibited her sculpture at Art of the Horse Exhibit at the Art Center in Fallbrook, California, during the month of October 2007.
