Decorative Coil and Decorative Trivet

My general art students have completed some wonderful ceramics projects using the coil method of hand building.  I am so pleased with the results I though I would share them.

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.

Hour of Code

Congratulations Multimedia I and Web Design students for finishing an Hour of Code.  I was so pleased to see so many of you working so hard on your coding  challenges.  Yes THEY WERE HARD!  However with some persistence I think many of you were pleased with what you learned, and rightfully so!
Below you will find screen shots of some of the completed projects posted by my amazing students.

Rorschach Day in Art

Accidents happen, in the Art Room they happen more often when India Ink is out.  And: they happen in three's.   Today they did in spades, we are down one shirt, 2 entire inkwells and the vinyl table covers will never be the same.  On the bright side no student artwork perished in any of the unfortunate events.

Here then are some very nice pen and ink drawings.
