8th grade students started their Anthropomorphic pottery projects today by wrapping their bottles in clay.
Using the slab roller and other clay tools purchased as a result of the grant awarded from the Arts Council of Greater Grand Rapids, students were able to cover their bottles with even sheets of clay as we prepare to transform them into vessels that show the personality of the artist who made it.
This semester is focused on the concept of identity in art and how artists throughout history have used this theme in their work.
I look forward to seeing how these plain bottles turn into lively representations of the students who are making them.

Our new slab roller was put to good use today as students rolled out slabs for their projects.
