The children enjoyed a busy afternoon working in their sketchbooks as they decided on the colours and designs of their ceramic birds. Using watercolour paints, the children spent time mixing colours, shades and tones whilst working hard to control the types of marks made with thick and thin brushes. Glazing their birds and ensuring they are finished to a high standard comes next - watch this space!

We enjoyed a fabulous afternoon developing our sculpting skills, in Miss Simpson’s art room at Morecambe Bay Academy. We learned how to mould thumb pots, how to use score and slip to join clay pieces and how to use a range of tools to work the clay and add surface decoration. Each of us sculpted and designed a unique ornamental bird which after a few days in the kiln will be returned to us for their finishing touches.
