7th Grade Cross

 This year in art we are making a cross out of sculpey. We first started off with the shape. We all had to draw what we thought it should look like, and then both classes voted on which one we liked the most. After we picked the shape of the outside, we had to divide it into 32 pieces. Then we had the finished drawing of the cross, and we had to cut out pieces of sculpey for each shape on the inside. Each one of us got one piece of the cross, and we had to design our piece with shapes and letters. Some people made stamps to press into them. When we finished designing them, we had to make sure all of the pieces fit, so we traced them. After that we pushed some of the pieces together to make it fit better. This cross design is similar to the one we picked.
