Matariki Art

On Monday 24th of June Rm7 created pictures
of the Northern Lights or the Southern
Lights how we did it is we used Pastels,
Black Paper, A cardboard rip out of
mountains, Clips to hold the cardboard back
and white paint for the Matariki Stars. First
we had to go see the example Miss Ashley was
doing so that we know what to do, she showed
us the example and we went back to our
tables after that Miss Ashley gave us
black paper and gave us a piece of
cardboard but she ripped it for us, we placed
the cardboard on our black paper we waited
for Maria to give us the clips to clip it on
and she gave 2 to us for each side
next we grabbed our pastels and started
to push the pastels on our paper but we
didn’t use the end we used the side and
pushed it up, we stopped half way and started
to use the other colours until it stopped at the
end but we had to go hard and work our way
up softly we only did the bottom hard so that
the mountains can show properly when
we were finished with the pastels Miss
Ashley showed us how to put the paint on
the paper we had to do dots to represent
the Matariki stars and she showed us 2
ways to create little stars the 1st way is tapping
it on your hand and the 2nd way is putting
the paint brush on your thumb and flick
it on your paper we tried to do the
flicking one and it got everywhere,
they all also turned out amazing
so the next day Miss Ashley
hanged it on our wall.
