Summary Customised Shoes

LI: to explain in fewer words what the text is about.

Our challenge today was based on looking at the work Rangi-Haira Jaxon Greening creates. Rangi-Haira showcases his skills by painting custom designs on shoes with the inspiration of the traditional Maori carving his grandfather and father had done. We read an article that explained what Rangi-Haira had done with his work in order to create a summary. By reading the artice, we could gather 20 keywords, narrow it down to 6 keywords and then create a summary which had all the important main points. I found it interesting how passionate Rangi-Haira is while working with shoes and designing shoes.

Recreating Famous Artworks

LI: To use your knowledge of colour and colour mixing to replicate the colours used in the artworks.

This week we have been learning about famous artworks and colour mixing. The artwork I chose was 'The Girl with the Pearl Earring' by Johannes Vermeer. This artwork was painted in 1665. It was painted as a symbol of purity and innocence. Today it can be found in Mauritshuis, a museum in The Hagues, Netherlands and is to permanently stay there. I enjoyed this challenge because we got to pick our own famous artwork and I really enjoy digital artwork.
