First Quarter Ceramics
Seward High Ceramics Class has been up to a lot this quarter! They began by making paper mache circus animals to decorate the Seward Music and Arts Festival. This involved drawing out patterns, projecting them onto large sheets of plywood, cutting the parts out with jigsaws and routers, constructing the wooden forms with screws and nails, adding the muscle and flesh with newspaper and chicken wire, paper mache-ing the outside, and painting! Here are some process shots!
After all that work, they finally began with clay, and the first assignment was to create a sculptural container with a removable lid:
