Donut Drawing!

After almost two weeks of wrestling wire, 3D Design students needed a more gentle material. We created pinch pot rattles that will transform to musical instruments after their bisque firing. We used the forms of pumpkins as inspiration and I love the creativity and spooky vibes. We discussed the art of Yayoi Kusama (duh) and watch news footage of her giant pumpkin sculpture being washed away by the recent typhoon.

This is my favorite artwork so far this year! My Art II students, a mix of 10-12th graders, created India ink landscapes focusing on showing depth through value. We looked at artists Sesshū Toyo at Shozo Sato and practiced painting washes and tree textures.

Here are a few student’s finished modular sculptures. I gave them a one foot height requirement, which was easily surpassed. What I didn’t expect was the competition for who could make theirs the tallest, resulting in some impressive towers.

3D Design students made modular sculptures at the start of the semester. It was a great intro sculpture lesson focusing on balance, geometric shapes and being interesting from all angles. This was really affordable and everyone was successful, two wins in a public school setting!

Started our India ink landscapes this week in Art II. I’d say more about them, but I administered the ACT and then had conferences until 7 pm. 🧠🍳

My 3D Design students did an amazing job creating their wire figures. Proportion isn’t the easiest concept, but they pushed through and made really interesting and creative sculptures!
