Challenge Create A Sculpture Using An Empty Tempera Gallon Container
Step 1: Find your inspiration
Research and look up the different types of batiks. What will your inspiration be? Will it be realistic, abstract, or non-objective? Will an artist, culture, or period of time inspire you? Will things in your life inspire you?
Step 2: Give your inspiration life
As you are researching/brainstorming create thumbnail sketches of possible designs for your sculpture. (the more the better) Will your 3D sculpture hang from the ceiling or will it stand on its own? (or will it need a base?) Remember that thumbnail sketches are quick interpretations of an idea. Once an idea is picked, make a list of other possible items you may need to gather to create your sculpture. Do you want materials to be left raw or will you paint them?
Step 3: Construction of your sculpture
Please make sure that your sculpture is no taller than 20 inches (storage space) All major connections between materials will be done with hot glue, any small connections between the same materials will be done with tacky glue.
Step 4: Finishing Project
Please make sure that all the spider-web pieces of hot glue are removed.
