Class LH have been doing observational art of a variety of flowers and have then used these drawings to inspire them and to create a 3D model out of clay.
The first thing we did was to understand how we could
manipulate clay by extruding it, rolling it and carving it. Once we were confident with this we then created
our own flowers adding the detail of petals, leaves and the stem. We used slip
to attach these parts of the flowers to the clay.
After that we painted our flowers. The children worked really hard and were all really pleased with their finished tiles after all the perseverance and patience in creating them. They do look beautiful.
Thank you to Mrs Rolfe for guiding them through this process.
