Cast Plaster Hand Planters

GIVE THEM A HAND
____________________
Pristine Plaster Planters

A breathtaking piece of sculpture +
an advanced drawing lesson =
a multimedia exploration of hands

Our advanced 9 and 10 year old smallSHOP artists
were ready for a serious challenge:
Time to tackle drawing those tricky hands!



We studied our hands sculpturally by creating a plaster cast.
The kids cupped their hand to form a planter
and each piece because a home for it's very own air plant!




While the plaster dried, we investigated hands through drawing.
Through tips, tricks, experimentation and practice
each student created a playful portfolio documenting their process.

We are SO proud of our 
smallSHOP artists
and their artistic journey.

These beautiful planters 
are timeless treasure
preserving their brilliant
 little hands for years to come.

Keep Exploring!

always,
smallSHOP
