Throwing on the Wheel!

I have been giving sixth grade students independent tutorials on the pottery wheel, and thus far, they have been doing a great job! I have to give a big THANKS to Paul Eshelman for patiently teaching me these pottery techniques last summer!

Culinary Arts + Clay


The Effect of Lines







Created with Ink and Watercolors.

Printmaking!

The 2nd Grade Students learned about the process of relief printmaking. The students created drawings of insects with a sharp pencil on a styrafoam tray. Next, the students used the brayer to roll ink onto the tray, and they printed the image multiple times. The students loved seeing the results and being able to create multiples. The project was a bit messy, but it was worth putting the clean up time in ;)











Terrariums!

The kindergarten students created watercolor resist Terrariums!
