Pixel art

Kick start 

For this activity we had to make a pixel based on summer when I think of summer I thought of the beach but I didn't know how I would pixel that so  decided to do flowers.

This is a pixel art I did using This site. 

This is the kick start there are also 2 stepping up activities.

Stepping up 1

As a summer theme I decided to do an apple tree going from no apples to lots of apples. This is because in the summer you start to get apples.

Stepping up 2

This is the third layer of my animation. For this animation I decorated and undecorated the Christmas tree.

I also have to right three facts I learnt about pixel.

1) There are stamps

2) There are different layers

3) On different sites you can do different things.

Summer vacation ~ New Zealand

For this SLJ activity we read Summer Vacation and because there is no New Zealand page on there our task was to create a page for NZ.

I enjoyed learning about summer in other countries.

For the step it up we had to make a video of me reading my page on New Zealand Summer.

We also had to make a jam board. That will be below the video.

My Fruit art

 Today for the SLJ I did some fruit art. I was inspired by the artist Giuseppe Arcimboldo. I found these 3 facts about him.

1)  Arcimboldo took nature seriously.

2)  Despite the royal acclaim his fame faded.

3)  Today he is beloved around the world.

My art work is made up of all these different fruits and vegetables I have drawn. The neck is an eggplant, the mouth is a banana, the nose is a pear, the cheeks are apples, the eyes are strawberrys, the ears are cucumbers, the hair is a brown onion and all this is on a plate with a knife and fork on either side.

I then also did the step it up which was make an art wrk of fruit on a google draw and screen castify talkiing about it.
