Charcoal Abstract

Here is my inspiration
Pinterest

Charcoal Abstract

Today in Totara we have been doing cave art using Charcoal, We searched on Google for Charcoal Abstract art, and Then we chose our inspiration. My inspiration was a crow on a tree. I added another crow that was flying and in between the crow and tree I did some Roy Lichtenstein art. The Artists name was Paola ???. I don't know the last name.

Reflection: I could've taken a better Photo and find the artists last name.

Question: What image would you use for Charcoal Abstract.

King Midas and The Chocolate touch Animation.

King Midas and The Gold Touch Animation

In Totora class we are making King Midas animations. The story is about a Greedy King sees to Gods called Dionysus and Silenus passing through, King Midas offered them to stay in his home, Dionysus grants him a wish and Midas wishes that everything he touched turned to Gold. The next day he wakes up and starts touching things, It turns to gold but when he hugs his Daughter she turns to gold, he then gets told to wash his hands.

Question: What could I do better?

Jim Dine themed art.

Jim Dine Themed Art
In Totora we have been learning different artists styles, This time we are doing Jim Dines style.

Jim Dine normally does tool art so we tried his style. The tool I did was a wall stapler (It kind of looks like a unicorn). 

You draw around the tool of choice and then you use charcoal to make the lines darker, you then smudge it so it makes the tool pop. 

Recount: I enjoyed doing this what i can work on is making it look less like a unicorn or shoe and more like a wall stapler.

Question: Would you try this? If so what Tool?

Camera Shots and Angles

Walt: Learning how to use different Angles and Camera shots.

Camera Shots and Angles

Today in Totora we were learning how to take different Camera shots and Angles, Me and my buddy Tawhiri used our chromebooks to take different types of Photos. We are taking these because we are going to be taking part in the Manaiakalani film contest.

Reflection: I think we could write longer Purposes and find better places to take photos because the lighting in some photo's weren't very good

 Question: What was your Favourite Camera Shot?

In Totara we have learned lots of different artists styles.

You should try it, Get some inspiration by searching Gabriel Moreno in the Google search engine.
