Michelangelo

We just finished up learning about the artist Michelangelo.  He was famous for painting the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, but he was also famous for the sculptures he made.  So, I pulled out our clay and let the boys create their own sculptures.  They worked on them for a long time.  

My lil' sculptors hard at work :)




Vann and his finished sculpture.  He named it 'King of the Jungle with Baby'  It was a lion with her cub.  Love it!


Chayce's finished sculpture.  He didn't name his.  But he had fun making it!  He spent a lot of time squishing the clay flat and then using a paint brush to put water in between all the layers so, they would stick.
