Museum Visit

A couple of weeks ago we went to the museum so that we could study Zena Elliott .

When we were there, we saw the pou, some of her painting.

also when we were there we also saw the waka .

when I was there I learnt about the paintings she makes is from what she grew up with. she made her art with a lot of lines and Maori patterns 
my favourite part was when we saw the room with all the moths

flox art reflection

1 The process to make our Flox Art was Mrs Gunn printed out a stencil bird for every one to use then if we wanted to we could paint the background colour  and got sponges to do the texture over the stencil.

2 The easiest part when doing our Flox Art  was the sponging because all you had to do was dab the sponge with the paint onto the paper .

3 I found the cutting out hardest because you had to follow the lines carefully .

4 In the end I liked the birds because they were vibrant.

5 If I was to do Flox Art again next time I would use different colours , birds or plants.

My favourite camp activity was abseiling  I had an adrenalin rush I thought I WAS GOING TO DIE because I thought the ropes weren't that strong, but in the end it was worth it.  This was the biggest achievement in my life!
