I made a Diwali lantern and I used clay and I made an elephant painting and I had to put my hand in grey paint to make the shape of an elephant.  At first I had to play with the clay to make  it soft, I used my hands to do this and it took a short time so then I could make it in to the shape for a lamp to sit in it.  I used perseverance to do this. I also used creativity.
