Description:

In Ceramics class, students will get a chance to experience different techniques to create art with clay. Our theme this session will be Epic Journeys!

Epic Journeys Project Descriptions:

Whale Ocean Bowls

The epic migrations of whale species in the oceans will be what inspires this beautiful bowl project! Students will choose a whale species to sculpt and place into a slump mold bowl. Once the project is bisqued, ceramic glazes will be added, and blue glass will create the illusion of water in the bottom of the bowls.

Viking Ships

Vikings traveled great distances in boats with carved dragon prows. Students will make their own ceramic boats which will be finished with sails and a Viking passenger.

Space Craft

In this out of this world project, students will design their own alien being to be piloting a space craft!
