Calendar Art

We are well under way with our plans for some stunning calendar art.  We have used a New Zealand artist - Warren Pohuta - and have looked closely at some of his amazing animal art.

We discussed how he uses bold colours and blending as well as some very detailed patterning.  The students are now practicing their pattern drawing skills on a template of one of his animal designs. 

Once we have mastered how to draw some of these intricate patterns, students will draw their own design and use Warren Pohuta patterning to complete it. Look out toward the end of Week 8 for our finished pieces.
