SkyView Art Club teens did a great job making these large vessels using handbuilding techniques and artist reference as a vehicle to process fears, the future and our goals. Different colors, designs and sketches represent a myriad of different challenges and possibilities for each student. We walked in unsure, but we left with connection and confidence. 👏

So many pots!! The Wonders of Wheel Class with Instructor Elizabeth Roten has knocked it out of the park this week!! These middle and high school students have spent the week learning basics of throwing and trimming and added the final details today before they are fired. 👏 Awesome job!!

If you missed this class, be sure to sign up for Elizabeth after school wheel classes starting up again this fall!

::Beaming with confidence:: these students worked hard today adding last details, colors and drawings to their dream structures complete with stairs, flowering vines and cake pops (of course!) 🤩🎨

Not an easy day as today was the shaping and refining process for these large organic vessels before students begin decorating them tomorrow! 🤩Some students already have big plans for their big pieces to represent future goals!
Great job!! 👏

Take a look at these pieces students are throwing on the wheel!! Students are getting a thorough understanding of wheel throwing this week in the Wonders of Wheel class with Instructor Elizabeth Roten as she today covered the importance of preparing and reusing your clay resources for the wheel.

Elizabeth is a fantastic resource and instructor for students as she also teaches our afterschool wheel class for middle and high school students. For those on the waiting list, who weren’t able to sign up for this intensive week with Elizabeth, be sure to look for her afterschool class during the school year.
