We were very excited to have local Artist Margot MacMahon visit Beye Discovery on September 24th. She taught students how to simplify complex forms such as animals into basic shapes and forms to more easily sculpt in the 3rd dimension. First, Margot demonstrated this concept on the whiteboard, drawing simple shapes and then combining them to create a completed animal form. Then, Margot demonstrated with clay and taught the students how to create additive sculpture, with forms that are joined together to create the completed whole. The students worked with focus and created some really terrific sculptures. A huge thank you to Margot for sharing her expertise with us ~ we loved the workshop start to finish!
