Undiscovered Series Part 3 - Sparkflight


So i hope you have been enjoying this Undiscovered Series so far! Welcome to Part 3! Ok now how cool is this! Called Coffee Man ( rightfully so as we can see!) made by Sparkflight, is this not the neatest thing ever!

Coffee Man is an original life-sized human wire sculpture! Quoted from the description: "Need some quiet company with your morning coffee? This barefoot guy in jeans and a t-shirt is the silent type, but will bring a smile to your face." And truly when i discovered him through Pounce, he did make me smile! I had never seen anything quite like this!

He apparently measures about 47 inches tall and is said to be that of a 5 foot 10 inch man! truly life sized!

Sparkflight also has many other very cool wire pieces! Including one of my other favorites of hers, the Red Cardinal, and this amazing one called Mother Nature.
