Cup and Saucer Assignment Due Friday, October 14th

Your next project in class will be to create a cup and saucer based on a word of your choosing. This word will help you determine the colors, shapes and overall mood of your project. See the examples to the right of past students' projects!

*Your homework assignment is to choose three words that you might want to use for your cup and saucer project. *

Choose from the list below, or choose your own! Write down your three words in your sketchbook, leaving space for your sketches.

In class, we will draw out ideas for how each word could be turned into a sculpture that you might be able to use for your pinch pot project.

(If you want to start your sketches at home, you will get extra credit!!)

Remember that there is a cup and a saucer--how could you relate the two together? Think about whether you want your cup and saucer to be functional or sculptural.
