Ceramic Shoes

 

Clay shoes are another big favorite in Art 1A. This is a complex, involved project. Students learn the basics of clay slab and coil construction as they undertake making a replica of a shoe. We also look at Pop Art from the 60s, when artists such as Andy Warhol, Claes Oldenburg, and Marisol began to use common everyday objects as the subject matter for their art.
