Art week ;)

Last week was the art exhibition and it was successful because of all the hard work that was put in by all the students in our school. My favourite art done by me is my alien because I think it's so cute.
Our theme was space- star wars and rockets. We made space themed record covers, big paintings, rocket paintings and self portraits of us falling into space. Overall, I have had heaps of fun and enjoyed it a lot.


I love the sunset done by room 8
My alien that I did. XD

Chocolate and Marshmallow

My favourite poem that I've written is about the memory I had when I first got Chocolate and Marshmallow. (My guinea-pigs) (They're super cute!) I like this poem because it gives me good memories of when I first got them and they were so tiny! Chocolate has been my best best best friend for 3 years and he is always there when I'm sad. But now he's gone. so yeah.




Guinea-pigs scurrying
In a box
Speed bumps everywhere
Hushed squeaks


An abrupt stop
The engine dies
Car doors slam
More hushed squeaks


The lid is lifted
Two perfect guinea-pigs
Warm caramel coloured
Chocolate and Marshmallow


Frightened sniffs
Agitated twitches
Gentle ruffles
At last, home sweet home

The most Fascinating Artist ever!

Hey guys, this week we are supposed to write about an artist that we like. The artist I've chosen is J.M.W. Turner which is short for Joseph Mallord William Turner. He was born on a day in late April~early May at Covent Garden, London, England. He died on the 19th of December, 1851. His movement, which means style of art, is Romantism. I like his artworks because he has achieved all the goals I've set for myself in realism art and that's amazing. The way that he can paint an image in his head then transform it into a masterpiece is simply stunning.

My top three favourites are:


1. I've lost my boat
It's a beautiful piece of art and I totally love it because the picture shows obvious joy and it makes me happy just looking at it. The blending is also goals!!! XO
2. Dartmouth Castle on the river Dart
This oil painting uses similar colours as the first painting I showed. I also love this painting because I like the way he displayed the time and place. 




3. A storm (Shipwreck) 
Date: 1823
This one is cool because the way he painted the waves showed exactly how hard it would have been for the people on the ships and especially if they were caught up in a storm. He also painted the splash of the waves very well.


One day, I hope to be able to paint as good as him but it's gonna take time. Since practice makes perfect! XD
