Clara, Grade 2, created a ceramic piece titled Monet's Lily. After learning about the French artist Claude Monet and his famous paintings of flowers, Clara was inspired to create her own interpretation of a water lily. She began by carefully shaping clay into forms that resembled a flower. Once the piece was formed, she applied glaze and had it placed in the kiln for firing.
