Calendar Art

For my Calendar art I chose to go to the textured landscape group. This is the final piece of art I made for the calendar. I chose to do a beachy kind of look and I used most of the patterns I did on my practice copy. I love the piece of art I have made and I am happy with it. The tricky part was when we went onto our good copy and I did not want to do a mistake. Also choosing the patterns and where to put them to make my art look amazing.  A hard part as well was when we had to chose our design for our good copy for what we wanted to have on our calendar. On one of my hills I done my initials so it reflects on me. I am really proud of my art and I hope my mum and dad buy it.

Art Exhibition

Art Exhibition 

This is the art I found on the internet                                                           This is my art I created 

This is my art that I created for the art exhibition that is coming up soon. We were meant to create a piece of art that is a bit harder than what you do and it represent us and people will know it is your art.  I chose to do this art because I have 2 dogs of my own and this is how it relates to me. I chose to do a grey background because it brings out that colors of the dog. I am really proud of the art the I produced.  

This is my plan for my art 

List of materials I needed

• Light blue, Purple, Yellow, Green, Pink, Orange, White, Light grey & Dark blue Paint
• Black Vivid
• Pencil (Lightly Sketch)
• Rubber
• Thin end paint brush
• Thick end paint brush
• A3 sized canvases (Get from The Warehouse)

List of steps to take.

1. First with the A3 sized canvas paint the whole piece the light grey using the thick end paint brush until there is no spaces
2. Wait for it to dry
3. Once it is dry sketch lightly on the A3 piece of paper the two dogs (It might take a while to get it right but it is ok and remember the eyes, nose and mouth)
4. When you think it is perfect go over it in black vivid and rub the pencil marks out
5. Get the paint and the thick paint brush and lightly and slowly make little strokes with your paint brush for the fur (Don't colour the eyes in with paint, nose or mouth)
6. Once it is dry we can add a bit of detail
7. With the Black vivid colour in a big part of the eye black but leave a bit of white at the bottom
8. Also with the black vivid colour in the nose which is just below the eyes in the middle
9. Directly under the nose draw a short line going down and at the bottom of the draw 2 lines going down into a loop then back up again
10. And there you have it your doggy piece of art

Thanks for reading I hope you liked it and can comment.

In her early life she attended school at Sacred Heart College in Napier. Her favourite subject is design and she also played soccer for Marist.

The monkeys could not be able to climb that high and also the ropes could get worn out and break.
