Andrew McIntyre, Perforated Mug

The Art of the Cup is an annual showcase of the work of regional ceramicists. This is the 15th year of the exhibition.

Supplies 

Cup Templates, Scissors, Markers 

Instructions   

Step 1: Look at the different types of cups on the template. Choose the cup that you like best. 

Step 2: Design your cup! Think about the colors and details you want on your cup. Do you want your cup to be a rainbow, or would you rather it only be a few colors? Will you draw a lot of different designs, or just a few? 

Step 3: Use markers to color the cup with solid colors. Add finer details, patterns or shapes to finish the cup. 

Step 4: Use scissors to cut out your cup! 

Step 5: Once you finish cutting out the cup, take it down to the Art of The Cup show and compare it to the other cups on view!
