Last year I decided to stray away from the typical coil pots that I have done with my fifth grade. One of my students asked if we could make clay food, and I thought that would be a great idea. We looked at some famous contemporary artists who have used food in/as the theme of their art, and started from there. We use various methods to create our forms, depending what the food is. After the clay was fired, they just used tempera to add the color, an modge podge to put a shine to it. The clay food was a hit! The students an teachers loved to see what was made!
