Making Clay Sculpture Essay

From last Wednesday's art class, the teacher taught us to make clay sculptures.

I bought alabaster clay and tools after school, went home, did my homework, and started my "masterpiece". I didn't want to make a normal magic hut, but rather, I conceived a more difficult for us newbies - a "pumpkin" hut.

Without thinking, I set up the tools, put the newspaper, and started to do it.

The first and easiest thing to do is to make the chassis. The first and easiest thing to do is to make the chassis. Mud rolled into a round, patted flat, about the size of a small saucer, with a knife to rub the smooth, you can.

Next is to make the body of the squash, and this is where the real challenge comes in. Because the pumpkin itself is a nearly round object, but the mud is very little, you have to do hollow, but also to imitate the pumpkin, this can give me a problem. I used my hand to mold the "pumpkin", from the inside to push out, it will immediately rupture, do a few times can not, I was about to give up, but then thought, do not do both can not complete the homework, but also a sign of weakness, do anything can not be halfway!

I continue to do, is still a failure, gradually, I was discouraged, but also very late, suddenly a flash of light, I thought: why not remove the second layer of the chassis, directly glued to the chassis? My excitement was instantly aroused, and I followed the idea to great joy! I succeeded!

Then finish the roof, add the ruffles, make the decorations, great job!

I looked at the finished "pumpkin" hut with joy, and I couldn't be happier! I was so happy to see the completion of the pumpkin hut!

I'm looking at the finished pumpkin hut with great joy.

Lying on the bed, I still can not calm down the excited heart, I think: as long as the unremitting efforts, encountering great difficulties are not halfway, then everything can be done!
