PROJECT INTRODUCTION:

For this project you will be creating an enlarged piece of popcorn. You will learn about Claes Oldenburg. You are first required to draw out your design from the side, angled top to side, and the bottom.  Second you are required to draw a full page piece of popcorn with measurements wrote on next to it.  Your popcorn must measure at least 5 inches and no larger than 7 inches.   You must decide the best way to construct it (slab, coils, or pinch pots).


Your project with then be fired.  The paint will be bunt off in the kiln.  You are required to then layer under glaze and remove parts of it with a damp sponge to intensify the resist.
