Open Ended Art – Feathers
14/11/09
We got to open ended art a little late this week.Â
I put out a bag of feathers, air drying clay, clay tools, and wiggly eyes.  First he said “With feathers I can make Kevin!” (from the movie “Up”) but that quickly became generic feathered friends once he realized how hard Kevin would be 😉
He made balls with the clay, shaped them with the tools, stuck them full of feathers and stuck on googly eyes.
He kept working on them until he ran out of clay. I guess it’s a good thing that I only pulled out a handful or so instead of letting him use all the clay in the bucket!

Love his little critters, they are adorable.
How interesting that you grew up here in Grays Harbor!
I actually am from the East side of the State, so it has been quite an adjustment for me from dry to WET!
