Wire Sculptures, Part 3: Chunky had some work done

Steel Wire Sculpture by Sherry Cordova: Pileated Woodpecker
The woodpecker is now thinner

Chunky is the name I’d started using in my head for the Pileated Woodpecker steel wire sculpture. Looking at Chunky I realized that some quick modifications to the gut could be made with my hands to slim down the sculpture. I bent the connection point between the legs and modified the long line that ran from the neck to the tail. And, voila! Chunky needs a new name. Perhaps “Pilar”….
