I brought back the competitive coil build challenge. Students seem to get a real kick out of it, especially when I offer extra credit for the tallest 3 in each class! 36" remains our record height from last year, I wonder if anyone will ever top it.
Ceramic 3 portrait busts are all but finished (I learned a bit about how to better deliver this unit), they are moving on to some press mold mayhem and glaze mixing. We shall see how well I can split a class into 2 completely different tasks.
During the portrait project, I asked my TA to model for me as I demonstrated how I approach the face to students. Turned out pretty good if I must say so myself... I'm tempted to finish it up to raise more funds for the program- Anyone want to purchase a 3x life sized face for their wall?
