Painting Pottery and Sketching out our Magnet Designs!!!!

We have been busy in the art room! It has been so much fun painting pottery. Also, we are getting started on our designs for the magnets that go out each year. The students have been carefully sketching out their pictures with pencils before they start to color! PDS is just so full of talented little artists!!!

Pottery!

Wow, we have been running the kiln a bunch at PDS! It is so exciting! All of the pottery has to be fired once before we can paint glaze on the pots. The 6th graders have been my pottery helpers. They have loaded and unloaded the kiln with me.All of the children have learned so much about the pottery process. Pottery Pics will be posted soon! Can't wait to see the finished pots!!!!!

Ron Koehler visits 5th grade!

We are starting "fast food" collage inspired by DSU's Chair of the Art Department and Sculpture Professor, Ron Koehler! He shared with us his food sculptures that he created from wood! All of the kids were amazed how real his sculptures looked!!!
