Gallery Seven Journal - Term1, Week2

Phoebe was our Kowhai Express Star this week, she received her award for being an engaged learner, especially during writing activities.

This week we had a look at some paintings by Cezanne, he liked to paint fruit and jugs and wrinkly table cloths that we think  would be hard to draw and paint. Miss Bell brought some fruit to school and we had a go at drawing some of them, We had to work hard to draw what we could see and not what we thought things looked like. 

Sam brought a Crab to school that he found while he was on holiday. It was great you could see the nippers, legs and tail. It was a purple colour.

Jaxson’s Aunty B came to visit us on Thursday, she is an artist and is studying art. She brought photo of lots of different types of artworks she has completed. She draws, paints, collages and work in fabric and sculpture as well.  Her art work was incredible and we got to ask her some questions. We thought the collage she had done was really funny, so we had a go as well.
We also had a go at doing an observational  drawing of an alstroemeria bloom, we are still working hard to draw what we can see.
Mrs Brickwood also sent us some photos of artworks that her second cousin, Rebekah Codlin,  created, they are amazing.
Our Artisan of the week this week was Emily, she got her certificate for  being observant and drawing what she can see.
