intro to 3d students are mid-way through creating their first hand-built piece from clay... a cubed box with a lid. they are in the process of transferring a famous artwork onto the surface of the clay. i cannot wait to see the final products! each student is also spending time on the potter's wheel, creating a wheel-thrown mug with a handle. the process is difficult, yet so rewarding! we continue to have a quiz every friday... this friday's quiz covers terms used on potter's wheel.
ceramics students are designing a set of canisters - focusing on a design that considers function before form. the canisters are built using the slab technique, with a rolled texture. the texture was created by carving or adding to a wine cork.
in addition, ceramics students are throwing cylinders and constructing a set of 2 goblets or 4 mugs.
