Students in Mrs.
Jones’ art classes made Greek vessels in
terra cotta clay.
First we looked at ancient examples
of Red and Black figure pottery from the
Classical Greek period.
We studied the Greek patterns
and colors and designed our own clay vessels,
inspired by these wonderful works of art.
To get the “Greek figures” for our
pottery, we took digital images of Unami
teachers and students in their chitons
during the ‘Greek Times’ week.
We used clay paints called
underglazes to get the black and white coloration
and let the red clay show through to
get the red color.
We
hope you enjoy our fine efforts and authentic looking works of art! |
