Exeter-Milligan Update: Art Class

Exeter-Milligan Art Classes by Jill Shipley

The Art II class at Exeter-Milligan has learned the term trompe l’oeil , which means “to fool the eye”.  They are making food sculptures out of clay to fool people into believing they are real. 

The students have made a piece of cake with pecans and bits of chocolate, doughnuts, and a banana split.  The students are adding the glaze for color and are anxious to see them after they come out of the kiln.
