Arts and other drugs part 2

Hello again!

So yesterday I told you about how we went to the workshop and had fun painting. Today I'll tell you about the rest of our afternoon in the workshop.

When we'd finished painting we wanted to do some pottery. We love it, it's even more fun than painting, but we needed some material to work with so I gave Julius a wheelbarrow and sent him out to dig up some clay.


Julius started of with the trowing wheel but it made him dizzy.
We wanted to make sculptures. Julius had never made a sculpture before (unlike me of course) so I had to teach him all the tricks step by step. We started by rolling the clay into flat pieces.


Watch and learn, kiddo
Then we made little clay balls. As usual Julius overdid it. Nine tiny balls? That's no good.


I'm a master at sculpturing but Julius clearly still has a lot to learn. He forgot to make arms for his Venus... Haha.


Whose sculpture do you like best? (Mine of course, but I promised Julius I'd ask.) You can vote by leaving a comment.


In the words of this dude (I don't know who he is but there's a poster of him in the workshop): Peace out! ☮️
