5th Grade LVAA Grant Project: In progress!

I have started putting the 5th grade glazed tiles to form our mural. They did a great job of following their glaze maps. I am currently outlining the images to make them pop. Next is firing them in my kiln.

Carolyn Braden: LVAA 5th Grade Grant Tile Project

While waiting for my kiln to be ready for use, we are prepping to start our LVAA (Louisville Visual Art Association) funded tile project. Fifth grade students will be creating 4-inch low relief self portrait tiles. When they paint their tile, they must follow a painting diagram I created. After the tile mural is assembled, viewers will see the self portraits when standing close, then see our school mascot, the dolphin, when standing further away. See my diagram in the photo below. Some classes will start sketches next week.
