Not paper mache’ , but I am so proud of all of them . These big greek urns are from students that were making 3 ” pinch pots and had never taken clay before two months ago. I think they did a fantastic job on there first semester. I have been offered to teach four courses next semester and I am eyeing that dragon pattern for hand building Jonni ! Or maybe the three pack of a few different animal masks for hand building two – I think these students would love them as a lot of little animals were showing up in their work .
I am looking forward to being off for the summer too though as I need to get back to my crete chae clay and do more for group on my web site . This first semester of teaching has been incredibly time consuming with planning, teaching, grading and learning the departments kilns and glazes.
Wow, you have been busy! How wonderful!
It is all student work Rhonda. These pots are from ceramics one class at a local college – started teaching in January and I am loving it
Yes, I understood that these were students’ work, but how wonderful you are able to teach about something you love. And I imagine that keeps you pretty busy.
Wow – those pots are impressive – especially for people just starting to learn. Is this a college class?
Hi Jonni , Yes it is college , though two are high school students taking dual enrollment. They did a fantastic job , very proud of them for their perserverance and super results for a ceramics introduction class . Hope you are doing well . I am seriously thinking about your dragon pattern for ceramics two and adapting it to clay ,just starting to write my courses for fall , as I will be teaching 4 courses starting in August .
