Monster Mania

I have had a great time grading and putting these little guys into our display case in the commons area,  there are more coming but I couldn't wait to share these. The assignment was to use one or two pinch pots to create a large hollow shape and then attach exaggerated features like eyes, claws and teeth. Super work! I love them all!

Castles in Clay, More Mugs

One of our recent assignments in general art is a soft slab cylinder project.  Students had the choice of making a mug, draped slab pot or a castle.  I have to say I have a soft spot for castles and am hoping to ad more picts to this post as the castles become reality.  On the mug frontier I have Bisque fired some really good ones and can't wait for the glaze fire.
