Ceramics One students "busted out" some amazing clay busts of their favorite teachers/coaches. Ava Williams' recreation of Mr. Rushmeyer is spot on. Parker Revermann chose to carefully sculpt Mr Rink. Hailey Klaphake focused on Ms. Reller. Lastly, Nadia Berscheit and Brooke Welle teamed up to create their basketball coaches, Mr. Myers and Mr. Welle. Also shown are the clay depictions of Cameron Boyce sculpted by Brooklyn McChesney and best buds Paige Stommes and Molly Rue each created one another. AMAZING WORK! #DutchmenPride
