Making a Pinch Pot - theartproject

I did this little demonstration with some art appreciation students, I also had an assistant make a pinch pot with us and so there are two different views in the video. Students love this assignment and I almost always have 100% engagement. I didn't embellish or decorate in the video. but after making the pinch pots we did push some stamps and other textures into the clay pots. and of course, later we will fire and glaze them. Let me know if you try and it and how yours turn out.

You know what's going on here?

That's right! Funny Bunny is nesting! She is getting her box just right for....BABY RABBITS. at least I hope that's what she's doing. 29 days ago she mated with Buck. So the timing is right. She should be due anyway now and she was pulling out her dew lap fur for bedding all night. When I got out to the hutch this morning it looked like there were two rabbits.

Aside from this exciting news here something else. I made at least 11 bird houses and 5 feeders out of scrap wood and license plates and a couple of wallhangings for our open studio.
