Y10 have been playing with materials to look at surface texture. I love these pieces, they could be paintings in their own right….

Year 9 at the Tate – Olafur Eliasson
Year 9 visited the Eliasson exhibition at the Tate today, to explore how art can be experienced… I think they particularly loved the fog tunnel and the rainbow room. #tatemodern #olafureliasson

Y9 Ceramic Pots
Year 9 students looked at seed pods and made some small pots in response, they were then glazed in two halves, white glaze and Pewter. They look great!
Year 7 Fruits
This year 7 class finished their fruits by painting them with 4 different colours of underglaze. They were then coated in a clear glaze and fired. They look fab!
Year 8 Ceramics day….
Year 8 have been off timetable today to participate in an all day ceramics workshop. They created challenging large scale and complex pieces. We were very impressed by their craftsmanship, and look forward to seeing them glazed with exciting new colours…
