Students are busy working away on my lesson plan for the TPA; "Line in Real Life". Students were face with a challenging project of creating Applied Art (functional objects with an artistic flair). Students are creating open coiled bowls that depict real life images from their every day lives. Some of the students have incorporated lines from crosses, spider webs, metal gates, roots, hair, railroad tracks, headphones, etc. I'm loving the students' creativity and they are working so well under the strict deadline. I am very pleased to see how efficient the students are with the limited amount of time they have to finish their projects. Below are examples of students' work in progress--I can't wait to see their finished projects!
Phew, we all survived last week. Sadly, Ms. Wager was absent from school all week due to a close relative passing away. The students and I chugged away and kept busy with the coil projects. The students have been very productive and creative with their coil bowls. I love it how they are pushing the limit in terms of originality (each student is trying to competitively out- do each other by creating new coil ideas). As a teacher, I LOVE THIS because the students continuously produce awesome work! Below are some examples of student examples that are in their bisque phase. Next up: staining and glazing!

Students will explore the Element of Art: Line, subtractive sculpture technique, and texture through creating Zen Doodle Pinch Pots. Pinch pots are a traditional vessel in ceramic history and is a way to create a strong, durable drinking cup or bowl using your hands and a pinching method to form clay.
The students have been AMAZING and have been working at a fast pace. The students are really feeling the heat of a deadline but they are finely executing their projects. Once again, these students have blown me out of the water with how creative and sophisticated their projects are. I can also see their personalities and artistic styles emerging with these projects. I am very proud of these students because it definitely is a challenge to create something beautiful out of clay in a short period of time. Most of the students are finished working with clay and are now waiting for their pieces to be fired. Some students have already started glazing their projects (!!!!!!) and it looks like a lot of the projects will be done for the critique on Friday! Below are pictures of the students working on their pieces--enjoy!
