Everyone was able to finish their cups today! We started off the class brainstorming ideas of what kinds of handles and designs we could use to embellish our cups. We then discussed different methods of how to create handles and designs. Some included slab techniques, coiling, more pinching, as well as slipping and scoring.
After going over techniques, the students were able to make their own artistic choices on how they wanted to create their cups. Despite the difficulties that come up when working with clay each was able to make their own cup, and hopefully they will all dry and fire successfully!
