My pohutukawa art

 

Last term our class did some pohutukawa art. I was really excited, because I love art. We were doing this because we were learning about the native forest in New Zealand . We had to make a the branches the right size, not to small not to big, that would be a bit tricky. The flowers I think are going to be easy. 

We started with some photos that we had to draw. We were using dye to make it more beautiful .We could use black and white crayons. The white was when we put the dye it looks more realistic and the black for the outlying We  first drew the branches, then the flowers . The first one was a draft. It was very soft , but on the hard copy it would be way rougher .

We  then started on the hard copy, it was going to be so much fun. My branches and flowers were perfect to me . It took as a few days to finish our art work. When I finished my art work it looked very beautiful.
