Making Balbriggan from Clay


In Visual Art today, we used clay to make a model of Balbriggan. 

First of all, we looked at photos of lots of different buildings and workplaces around Balbriggan. We each chose a different building and then we started to make it from clay. 

We first made the clay into the correct shape by hitting the sides of the sphere off the table so it was more like a cube or cuboid. Then we moulded any extra features we needed - like the roof. Finally, we used clay tools to add some extra details to the building. We did a fantastic job!
