Waikowhai Art Festival

Hi guys Richard here. On Tuesday the schools Art Festival was on. You guys may know that my class painted individual birds that are native to New Zealand.  I used blue for my background as the sky and had a sparrow as my bird. My favourite part of doing the bird painting was the flower because my teacher told me how to shade it and make it look more effective. The reason why I did this bird is because it was really easy to draw and there wasn't that much to do with it. I didn't go to the Art Show so I can't tell you guys what happened but here are is a photo of people weaving at the Art Show.

We also made signs for our house that we built for the Art Show. The sign had to persuade people to stop polluting our country and helping us make it more healthy for our animals. Everyone else did it on their chrome books except for me and my two friends. I enjoyed drawing the sign because when I draw I get more ideas and brainstorm them in my head, then I get one big idea. 

Before I did my sign had to do this thing called Train Art which me and my art group made for the new train station that is going to be built underground. The subject was where would we go in a train for mine I did "To the islands of Samoa". My favourite part of doing this was colouring in the drawing I did.


There was one big piece of art that the whole syndicate helped to make it was our big weaving board.  I really liked weaving because I haven't done it before in my life so this is probably my highlight of this term. There is a teacher that helped us and is really good at weaving her name is Mrs Paki.
