Gesture Drawing, Wire Sculpture, and Mood through the Art of Paul Klee
Gesture drawing relates to wire sculpture in that both media use line. Paul Klee, painter, frequently described that drawing was like, "taking a line for a walk."  Through line, Klee was able to depict emotion.  Klee's sense of emotion is depicted in his art for a variety of reasons.

Read about Klee on the Metropolitan Museum of Art website and post a comment about how his mood is reflected in his art.  Please include the title of one of his paintings to accompany your post. http://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/klee/hd_klee.htm
