CAVEMEN FIGURINES

After my students did their portraits of the four boys who discovered the Lascaux Caves we discussed 3-D figurines found in prehistoric caves.  So I took advantage of this discussion and asked them to create their own original caveman figurines.  This was a perfect time to teach them the basics of ceramics.  They carved the pieces of clay which is the subtractive method of sculpture.  Here they are completing their carving.
