8th grade ceramics...vessels, animals, pinchpots and masks.

These eighth graders are really working well with clay.  Here are some more examples of completed items.

 

 

 

The girls made several pinch pots to use for sgraffito, glaze combinations, or painting.

 

 

The hedgehog above has gold-tipped quills.  The swan, with many technical challenges, turned out well.  The turtle shell contained a variety of textures.

 

 On the first vase, her orange glaze ran off the star onto the body of the vase, but we all agreed that it turned out for the best!  The second vase turned out so well.  She glazed the inside with clear and purple, which streaked and added to the floral feel. 



 The masks.
