Create Your Own: (Toy) Sculpture

To begin another afternoon of artistic discovery, we visited a neighborhood art gallery.

Sneaking a peek

The focus was on sculptural artwork as the artists intended on working to create their own three - dimensional works upon returning to the art studio.

including rocks, sticks, and seed pods

The studio's design comes together as the
cumulative Art Exhibit approaches

Collaborative critiques are well-received

Sculpting, Crafting, Creative
Problem - Solving

Wooden 'beauty sticks' serve as structure
while hollow pistachio shells mimic
the wheels of an airplane

Demonstrating flight

Select red felt is carefully cut in halves to
create a stylish runway while eucalyptus
seed caps function as 'jet engines' for
this artsy aircraft

Demonstrating take-off

Museum wax made this piece possible

Compilation of completed works

Making sculptures was a blast; these pieces are only the beginning of more to come...
