Gregory Gregoriadis takes readers on a journey through Nazi-occupied Athens in his novel "Still the Cicadas Sing". The novel follows a young boy, Alkinoos, whose carefree world is turned upside down by the brutal German occupation of Greece. It depicts the starvation, arrests, and executions the people of Athens endured under Nazi rule. The story also shows how the occupation affected the boy's coming of age. Inspired by his own experiences in Nazi-occupied Athens as a child, Gregoriadis seeks to educate others about Greece's role and sacrifices in World War 2 through this literary novel.
The use of ceramics dates back as far as 11,000 BC and originated in places like Greece, Japan, Egypt, and Iran. Early uses of ceramics included carrying water, storing food and seeds, cooking food, and creating urns and sculptures to bury in tombs. Ceramics have also been used for jewelry. The document then defines various ceramic terms like kiln, clay, cone, greenware, bisque, slip, score, glaze, and tools used for shaping ceramics like the potter's wheel, turntable, and clay extruder.
Clay is a fine-grained earth material that is plastic when wet and hardens when heated. It has been used for ceramic art for thousands of years, with some of the earliest pottery dating back 29,000 years. There are different types of clay like earthenware, stoneware, and porcelain. Sculpting clay requires various tools like loop tools, ribs, and brushes. Techniques include wedging to eliminate air bubbles, and scoring and slipping pieces together. Once sculpted, pieces are fired in a kiln through bisque and glaze firing to harden the clay and add decorative glazes.

This document provides an introduction to working with clay ceramics. It discusses that clay is created from the decomposition of igneous rock and involves the interplay of moisture, plasticity, and heat. The origins of ceramics date back to when people first learned to control fire. The document then covers properties of clay like plasticity, shrinkage, texture and moisture. It provides instructions for preparing clay, such as kneading or wedging to remove air bubbles. Various stages of clay are defined, from plastic to leather-hard to bisqueware and glazeware. Safety tips are also provided for handling clay.
The document defines value as the lightness or darkness of a color. It explains that adding white to a color creates a tint, while adding black creates a shade. It demonstrates how an artist can create concentric circles by gradually adding more blue paint to white and light blue paint, mixing between each addition.
- When drawing a portrait, the width of the head is two-thirds of its height when viewed straight on and seven-eighths of the height when viewed in profile.
- The face can be divided into four equal sections with features falling along these lines, such as the eyes in the middle section.
- Details like eye shape, placement of features, and use of values to render light and shadow are important for accurate portrayal.
This document explains color theory concepts including primary colors, secondary colors, intermediate colors, analogous colors, warm and cool colors, complementary colors, hue, value, tints, shades, and intensity. It defines these terms and describes how colors are created or altered by mixing. For example, primary colors cannot be created by mixing, secondary colors are created by mixing primary colors, and value is altered by mixing a hue with white or black.
Koi fish originated in China as a mutated form of carp brought over as a food source when the Chinese invaded Japan. Farmers in Japan began selective breeding in the 1820s to emphasize their bright colors, creating the ornamental koi fish seen today. Koi fish frequently feature in Asian art as symbols of strength and perseverance, and in mythology a koi that climbs a waterfall can transform into a dragon.
