How we express ourselves Week 5: Favourite pages in our art journals

The students each selected their favourite piece of work in their Art Journals and have explained why they like it.

I chose this poem because it has colors that are calm and peaceful. I was inspired by the color of the sea and the land. - Vannissa

I think the shape inspired me to make a dog because a dog is always hungry and I felt hungry. - Seb

We made a collage each. I made a chetah, it reminds me of the colorful origami colors. I was going to make a bunny then a turtle, then a chetah. We were inspired by Henri Matisse's artwork, his was a snail. Mine is how the chetah is camouflaged so well in the wilderness. - Molly

This is my favourite because I liked when I was drawing a lot of cool pictures and I like to draw people. - Peter

I was inspired by the sunset because the sunset made me feel cam. This is my favourite artwork because I used the whole page and the whole page is colourful.  Akari
