Join local award winning sculptor for an online wire tree art lesson! Grab a fist sized rock and some basic tools and materials and learn how to create your own wire tree! Bring a part of the outdoors in for an everlasting piece of art! Artist and sculptor Ryan Kelley creatively transforms wire, wood, metal and stone into unique pieces of art.

Ryan is a young artist driving change in the artistic community around him, and an experienced sculptor with hundreds of creations and commissioned pieces to his name. Kelley’s work can be seen in homes and businesses throughout the country. Over the years his pieces have grown in scale and intricacy, much like his signature trees crafted from hundreds or even thousands of wires.
