3rd Grade Clay Masks

We began this project before Christmas, but with some explosions and a 2 week break, the completion of these masks has been delayed a long time! Anyway, here they are, finally getting painted.

We discussed African masks...celebrations...identity....transformation....

I also squeezed a day of color theory into this project. It's the project that never ends! So at the end of these photos are some pics from the "Dali-inspired Long-legged Birds..."
Roy G. Biv.... that kinda thing. I actually prefer these to a color wheel...so fun!
