Suter Art Gallery

Esther talking to us in the new Suter classroom.

These are the materials and equipment we used to make the clay santas.

We drew designs and patterns from around the gallery to decorate the Santa hats.

Esther is demonstrating the first steps.

The two Bellas are using a rolling pin, with two pencils as guides, to roll out slabs of clay.

We lay the slabs over sushi dishes to get the right shape.

Everyone added features and texture to make the Santa face,
