Art From Meleane To'a

Walking around the art gallery, I found a beautiful abstract painting. I wondered who created it. Finally I knew, it was created by Meleane To’a. It was really cool and detailed.  I started to look around to see who did she copy.

It never said who did she copy. But our teacher told us. Who did Meleane copied? If you are thinking that it was Kandinsky, you a wrong. If you think it is Jackson Pollock. You are right. Jackson Pollock had just grabbed his paint and splashed it over the paper.

At the end I had to remember all the things about Meleane To’a and Jackson Pollock. My second favourite was a girl name Vannesa. She is in the same class as Meleane To’a. Room 15. Her work was actually inspired by  Robert Delauney. He uses shapes and different colours. Jst like Kandinsky.

I think they worked hard to finish  artwork.

Robyn Kahukiwa Hine

During exstention, we have been learning about Hine. Actually her real name is Wahine. Our ICT teacher found this wonderful painting created by Robyn Kahukiwa. As the time she had shared out the awesome picture, we started to draw Hine. I already knew I will finish immediately. So I did. Finally Ms Tele'a had told us to make a very creative movie.

PEPA(Kapa Haka)

Watching the PEPA group was so amazing!!!! I really like the Kapa Haka group because they were loud without a microphone and they were brave. This is a picture that I drew. It is about the Kapa Haka item. The leader for the Kapa Haka item was a boy named Toko. He was very loud and  confident. At the same time there was two boys behind named Kade and Gabriel.

Wassily Kandinsky Composition IV

Composition IV is mixed with swirling colours and soaring lines.

The painting is  divided strongly in a centre by  thick strong  black lines. If you look on the left side you will see violent motion. On the other side expressed calm sweeping forms all over.

In the middle of the painting, there are two cossacks holding a black sword and at the side of the cossack there is a third white bearded cossack leaning between a purple sword. They stand below a blue mountain and a castle above.

On the left hand side there is a rainbow and on top of the rainbow is shown a horseback battle. In the lower left there is a boat under the rainbow. At the lower right, there are two people lying on a hill, and above them are two priests watching on.

Trip to Youthtown

Have you ever been on a trip to Youth Town? I have. How exciting going to Youth Town.

Yesterday we had a trip with Room 16. The time Room 13 & Room 16 arrived in Town, we all hopped out and left the comfortable bus.

Walking inside the building, I smelt chlorine.
“Uh, Yuck”, I said to my mate.
“Totally”, he replied.
“What are we going to do first”?, I asked my teacher.
“Listen”, she replied.
Our teacher went out of the room.
She came back in saying,
“all Room 13 people are doing clay pots first.”

Bravely walking next door, I heard someone in room 16 shouting,
“we are going swimming!!!”,
I turned and looked. It was Neo. He is in room 16. I think they might have fun.

By the time we arrived in the clay room, we had to follow instructions that a lady named Georgia gave us. When she finished talking, we started our clay experience. It was a bit hard. At the end of making the pots, we washed our dirty hand and have morning tea back in the room.

After our morning tea was our play time. What did we do for our play time? We played slow basketball, mini soccer, table tennis, pool table, and also shoots in the hoop. The last game I played was mini soccer. Boys vs Girls. Guess what? Boys won!!!!!.

At the end, we had to leave sadly back to school. But it was a good day.
