The Poofect Art Project

End of Term 2:

At the end of last term we got to choose what topic we would like to go further on and make it a project. I had to decide between Technology, Art and Music, I chose Art as I had most enjoyed this. Then we had to get into the groups of techniques we had most enjoyed, I went to the group that was all about sketching. As a group we had to come up with an idea that would have an effect on the Hobsonville Point Primary School. Our group struggled for ideas so we asked Amy if she had any. The idea that she had come up with was to sketch some pictures that we see round Hobsonville Point to place in the school toilets to brighten them up.

Week 1 :
As a group this week we have been filling out our timeline so that we can have a some deadlines of when things need to be finished. We started to make a survey that could be sent out to the people using/seeing our sketches on the walls. On our survey we had put the different options for the sketches that we would put around the building. By Friday our survey was complete and it had been sent out and we were ready for responses to come in. Also this week we have started to create a shopping list of what we need to complete our project.

Week 2:

This week we have received some answers from our survey. Most of the responses came back as Sketched pictures and a Hobsonville Point theme. Once we had got the responses we all assigned ourselves a picture to sketch. I choose to draw the windmills not far from our school. This week we have started to draw our pictures roughly so that next week we could do it properly and get our final pieces done by our deadline in week 4.

Week 3:

This week we have all started to draw our final copies of our sketches. I have really enjoyed sketching the windchimes but I found it very difficult to get it right the first time so I tried and tried again but still haven’t got it just right yet. Also this week Natalia and Jacky from my group went out to the warehouse to get our frames that we are going to put our sketches into to make it pop out more..

Week 4:

This week Mikayla and Jacky have completed their drawings and have placed them in frames ready to go up next week also this week we have asked the caretakers what to use to put the frames up on the wall without wrecking the walls. This week I found that my picture had been cut a little bit in the corner so I had to start again. As it got to the end of the week my drawing was complete and just waiting on the time to add the colour it needed. This week we have mostly been documenting and doing our final touch ups.
