I think I did pretty well during the presentation. I found that I avoided looking in people’s eyes during it because I am socially awkward. I feel that I could’ve been more prepared during the presentation. For example, I could’ve practiced my presentation a lot more the night before instead of winging it with my […]

This week is the final week before the presentations and I should start making the presentation before it’s too late. For the last genius hour I brought tools that I used to make a frame. This time I’ll probably do the same but I will also bring all the clay things I made including lots […]

This past week I learned how to make tiny clay sculpture things. I found that faces are really hard to make in air dry clay because by the time you find the right place it has already dried up. I found most of my issues were because I didn’t really know how to use the […]

These two weeks I have been learning how to work with air dry clay. I found that the ones from Dollar Store are really fragile and they dry REALLY quickly. I have found that adding small details not attached to the main body is really hard because they usually break off. This week I have […]
