4th Grade Form - Castles and Architecture!

4th grade artists studied the art career of Architecture! We looked at various castle architecture throughout time and specifically the Neuschwanstein castle. We discussed the differences between shape and form and then sketched our own castle architecture. Next we took on the job of actually creating a 3D castle out of clay while thinking about textures, score, slip and seal, carving, adding clay details etc. Finally, we designed a landscape for our backgrounds!
