Making process |
|
After interviewing the craftsmen in Tian-Mu Creative Art Market, we decided to attempt in making creative artworks. It took us three weeks to realize it is not a simple task.
Zack Chen:We made wooden clips and coasters to sell in Tian-Mu Creative Art Market. I felt that the items we completed this time are not too bad at all. From there we learnt how to make creative art pieces.

Kelly Liu:The girls were responsible for making the coasters. It was not easy to make it initially. After a few trials, we acquired the hands on experience and it became easier. However, it still required a lot of attention to craft each piece well.

Winnie Fan:I learnt a great deal from this experience. From participating, I realized the difficulties of creating an art piece. Not only did we need to be attentive but we also had to remain creative in order to produce a unique piece of work at the end.

Eva Pan: During the previous interview, although we saw many creative and attractive artworks but I still remained confident in our own work since I knew that we had all infused a lot of time and efforts into our creations. All the best to us!
