Modroc Olympians
Beech Class made figures representing Ancient Greek Olympians. First of all, we made wire figures using the proportions of the human body. We then made a base out of clay. After that, we covered our model with Modroc. When it was dry, we painted it with bronze paint so it looks like a bronze sculpture.
Greek Pots
Beech Class made clay pots in the style of Ancient Greek pots. We studied different types of Greek pots and their purposes. We designed our pots and the illustrations on them. We made our pots using the coil pot technique. When they were dry, we used fine brushes and black acrylic paint to paint our designs. We used illustrations of Ancient Greek pots as inspiration for our designs.
