It was one of those days, for us to work…and work. But today was no ordinary day. An art teacher had just stormed in class, with a whole pile of art materials in her hands. Her black high heeled boots and her mysterious black coat. We just knew, she was mysterious indeed. For the task she had given us, was forced to be completed in one day. Now the nightmare had just begun.
These were the steps we followed all through the day:
STEP 1: We drafted out two copies of ideas for our artwork. We had drawn a mixture of seaweed and fish. Followed by that, we drew patterns inside the fish, so that the fish could stand out. With the seaweed, we wildly drew a combination of seaweed, instead of making it straight and perfect.
STEP 2: Next we painted our background using a light blue water colour. While it was dry we drew our wild seaweed over the background. It was like drawing different, divine dark and light, coloured seaweed. Soon we were able to use a mixture of green paint so that we could colour our tangled up seaweed. We used different colours to create green and we also discovered many ways to make it.
STEP 3: Thirdly we drew our slimy fish swimming in all directions you could ever imagine. There were many different fish, although we were only able to draw three. We drew there shape and size and designs as well, of the shimmy, slimy fish.
STEP 4: Fourthly we used some very sticky gello paint, so our fish can stand out to the world. Now we were told to be careful with the paint, because it doesn’t come of clothes. Back to the paint, we coated the fish 3 times so it turns out smooth and it looks like clear paper.
STEP 5: Later on, we painted our fish using a pallet full of paint, along with some white compound to make the paint lighter and more useful. Two of our fish were coloured with the same three colours, and the other fish was jumbled up with several different colours.
STEP 6: Sixthly, we used some sketching tools to sketch in our designs. Our designs were told be like the fish we drew from an art book. Our fish’s eyes were supposed to be perfect, not like kiddies eyes. Sketching our designs was told to be at our best ability, like it had to be perfect. ‘PERFECTION!!’
STEP 7: Lastly for our masterpieces to be completed we went over our seaweed with some pastel. We used different light and dark colours to form our seaweed in our shiniest way we could.
Now this was an amazing experience learning how to create a masterpiece in a day. Room 5 learnt how to use gello and different colours to form a combination of the colour green. We hope to see another art teacher and have this much fun in a day again.
