Today I got to experience the Egyptians create art. They have so many different ways to create art. Some examples of their art is glass-working, metallurgy in both bronze and gold, and furniture were other advancement for Egyptians. The Egyptians also can make coins, sculptures, jewelry, and vessels. They also believed that great appearance was valued. They would scent themselves with perfume and incense, and create cosmetics for both men and women. They also showed me their newest practice, which was shaving. They also created wigs and hair brushes. They made so many different inventions. Their way of art is extremely unique, I have never heard of some of these cosmetics and incense before. I made a drawing of some of their cosmetics. I was with the Egyptians while they we’re making gold chains. They have an extensive range of techniques on how they make the jewelry. Their jewelry takes the form of necklaces, bracelets, earrings, rings, diadems, pendants, pins and brooches. They have a technique called filigree, where gold is pulled into wire and twisted into different designs. They way the Egyptians do their art is so faciniating.
