We took this week’s project up north to Portland, Oregon for this session’s local artist spotlight on James DeRosso! DeRosso is known for his work with clay; he has been making tiny creatures since he was small.

We recreated his works of art by making our very own Clay Monsters! Sculpting with colored clay, we made unique projects – no two were the same. We discussed what a kiln is as we explored this medium. Our monsters won’t bite, but they do make fun pencil holders.

This project included:

• Recreating James DeRosso’s bold, colorful clay creations
• Discussing how a kiln works
• Working with clay to mold our very own creatures

Thanks for stopping by this week! We would love to see you soon!
