Wheels in clay

In our first week exploring clay in the Art in the Morning class, this young artist became especially fascinated with the way bottle caps make impressions in clay.

He referred to them as "wheels" and delighted in seeing the different surfaces they left in the clay as he made roads.

Feeling the ridges on a bumpy road.

The metal cap made a smooth road, while the ridged cap had even more bumps.

Matching the tool to the road it made.
