Clay creations - Seachtain na Gaeilge


During Seachtain na Gaeilge, each class decided to use an Irish artist as inspiration for their artwork.
We chose the work of Annie Robinson. Annie was born in Belfast and spent much of her childhood travelling the Irish countryside. These memories became inspiration for her art later on in her life. Her work is a celebration of rural Irish life using bright, vivid colours. Here is the piece we chose as inspiration: 

We drew our own flowers on small pieces of paper and then recreated these in clay to make clay tiles. 


Here we are working on our clay tiles:







Here are some of our clay tiles before they set and we painted them:
