Diwali.

Not that long ago my class and I were leaning about diwali, Diwali is an indian holiday that lasts for five days, my teacher gave us two choices to do the art outside with chalk or do it inside with a peice of paper.

 

 

Self Portrait Art.

 Last week in class my class and I were learning how to mix colours, First we took a picture of ourself and printed it out, we then got a lamanating sheet and put our picture inside of the lamanation sheet. We then proceeded to trace our faces over top not on the inside of the lamanation sheet (We did it carefully because we were using sharpie) After we traced our face we took out our pictures of our face from the inside. We then flipped the lamanation sheet inside out making sure we didnt paint on the wrong side, We then mixed colours to make our skin tone. Little bit of yellow and red with white. We used the tiniest bit of black, white, yellow & red to make our hair colour and our eyebrow colour. we used our left over skin tone and added some red and white to match the colour of our lips.

Mothers day Gift

 Wednesday Afternoon our teacher had informed us that mothers' day was This sunday coming up. She had looked online and found a Mothers' Day card that we could do, You need a skewer, string, Pencil, paper heart and a Black card or any colour of your liking.

We cut out a heart from a piece of paper we placed it on the front of the card and traced around it with a pencil make sure not to move the paper whilst your tracing it otherwise it won't look as good after that we got a skewer and we poked holes around the hear we just traced, we poked them about 2 joined fingers away from each other we did 2 arm lengths of string, we attached the string to the none pointy end of the skewer the other end of the string that WASN'T on the none pointy we tied into a knot

. We started from the bottom middle Underneath, then over to the top middle through the top we. We made sure we only did ONE string straight that was the middle ones. 

Whale art!

About 2 weeks ago our teacher had let us do some whale art witch is bacially dye. We had a practice sheet and drawed our  sketch on the practice paper  and we even DYED the practice paper to get our colours we wanted, we used black sharpie for the lines on the whale stomatch, we used white paint for the little dots on his head.
This was difficult in some sort of way, i kept doing the head to big.

Enjoy!
