Life In Lockdown Artwork

This is the artwork I made about life in lockdown.

Soap Carving For Technology

We are learning to:
 Develop ideas by developing and revisiting visual ideas, in response to examples we have seen, and ideas that we can think of for ourselves.

Learning Challenge: Create an artwork in any way you prefer (painting, drawing, building, sewing,  soap carving!) of something you think is Kiwiana… it could be something other artists have identified or something that is an original idea of your own

I made this soap carving of a kiwi with a bar of soap and a tooth pick/stick.

Visual Arts Drawing

We are learning to: 

 Develop ideas by developing and revisiting visual ideas, in response to examples we have seen, and ideas that we can think of for ourselves. 

Learning Challenge: Create a small artwork, no bigger that 5cm high x 5cm wide to put somewhere around your property… do NOT draw on the walls! Do your artwork on a separate piece of paper or wood. Take a photo of your artwork in location for your blog.

Visual Arts Face Drawings

We are learning to: Develop ideas by developing and revisiting visual ideas, in response to examples we have seen, and ideas that we can think of for ourselves. 

Learning Challenge:  Create a series of pencil or pen drawn faces using the hints from Vexx’s video.  

Emotions Drawing

Today we had to draw a picture showing an emotion using a link from the class timetable for arts interchange.

Collaging Google Drawing

Today in ruma tahi we have been learning to make a collage using Google Drawing. We used the explore, mask and arrange tools to put our collage together. We had to create a NZ bird and put it into its natural habitat. I thought it was a lot of fun and I am really pleased with my Red-Crowned Parakeet. Have you ever had a go at making a collage using Google Drawing?

My Kowhaiwhai Art Work

 Kowhaiwhai Art

In He Kakano we have been learning about kowhaiwhai patterns and their meanings. This term we had to create our own kowhaiwhai patterns and describe their meanings. I decided to make my art about friendship and I used a butterfly to symbolize it because I think butterflies are friendly. The black designs in the corners symbolize a group of friends and the purple designs symbolize a bridge to friendship. I chose purple, black and white for the colours because I think the colours mix well.
