0313 Liberty Park Masks
Students crafted masks like these of Eeyore and Yoda.
Liberty Park Middle School’s seventh grade art classes recently completed a project that allowed them to express their love of reading through art.
Art teacher Shaymon Gosnell asked the students, “Who is your favorite storybook character?” Then they created clay masks representing these characters. Some students went with contemporary characters such as Harry Potter’s Dobby, and others went with timeless classics like Winnie-the-Pooh.
To create the masks, each student created an armature. Then each mask was glazed and fired in the kiln.
