Obituary for Lesile

On 1997 16th of June a girl called Lesile died no drowned at the creek near her house. It was all so sudden. By the info we collected we are sure that the branch that was connected to the rope snapped and then she hit her head on a rock and after she hit her head she fell into the river and even though she can swim the water level was too high. The school she went to was Lark Creek Elementary and she was a fifth grader and she was 10 years old. According to the teachers at Lark Creek Elementary she was nice and kind person.

In the classroom we were learning how to write an obituary of a person and the purpose of a obituary is to say what they did good, what they achieved and what they did to change other people. so we chose the character from a book called the bridge to terabithia and the character was Lesile. The reason that we chose Lesile was 1: was that she died 2: was because we know how she died.

Tonal Landscapes

























We were learning to make distance by using colour.  This is my Tonal Landscape and the technique I used was tonal modelling. Tonal modelling is a colour going lightest to darkest or darkest to lightest.       

Monet's Art

















This painting is a art work based on a technique Monet created. This art work is made out of different techniques. One of the techniques I used was masking tape, I used this technique for the fence thats why it looks pretty neat.Another technique was drawing the horizon line(the part where the sky meets the ground).  The technique I used for the grass was sponge painting and for the sky was drag and draging is basicly putting panit on a cardboard then draging it across the page and letting the paint mix on the page. The technique I used for the pond was flicking so all you have to do is put white on one side and blue on the other side and the last step is to flick it. I also used sponge painting for the bushes and footpath. The technique I used for the flowers was dotting so you use the back of the paint brush and then put paint on the back of the paint brush now you can dot.
