Hi my name is Carina McLay I am 11 years old. My favorite things are having fun, dance, singing, netball and golf.

I am in the arts because i am really talented at the arts but mainly because of the preforming arts

Draw what you can SEE not what you **imagine** will be there Tone: Look for the light and dark areas Fill in your portrait using light and dark **texture** as opposed to lines Be brave - avoid pretty, dark is dark, light is light No outlines - do not draw the outline first - start with the eyes and work out Proportion: Use some tricks and good observation to complete a portrait with good proportion Pop Art: Use lines to transform your portrait into areas of distinct light or dark (pop art style) I was brave - I have completed four distinctly **different** works? Did I avoid lines and outlines? Is my work well proportioned? Did I use texture well? Did I really take a risk and draw what I see, not what I expect or imagine to be there?

 * Success Criteria**

If I was to choose a tiny bit of my work that I love - what would it be and why?
 * Questions to challenge myself!**
 * //Why//** do I like or not like a particular work?
 * //Why//** did I enjoy or not enjoy a particular style?


 * Next steps for myself?**

In Monets 20s he had no financial or soial suppout from his family members.Throghtout his younger years, Monet had to borrow money from Bazille in order to money for daily necessities. And for at least his younger years, consant out side financial support was always a constant.

Life of Monet as an artist The road to success for Monet was long and hard

//Thanks Carina. A good first attempt.// //I think this is a Level 2 Biography// (Have a look at the matrix on the biography page)

//In terms of next steps for writing a biography, I think you need to consider the following ://

Purpose: The purpose of a biography is to give us a summary of the persons life and explain what made them so important (or famous). You have begun to do this but it is not finished. Also, you can't assume that the reader has any background information. You mention Bazille, but I have no idea who or what this is. Spell it out for the reader. Text Organisation: You've sequenced what you have written. Next step - write all the information that is in bullet points into full sentences.. Language Features: Pretty good here, a couple of surface features issues to look at, capitals (proper nouns!!!!), spelling and fullstops etc.

=Through My Eyes (Artist View) Through his eyes he sees a world of imagination and a good talent that he took up when he was a kid. He liked a sort of thing but he loved painting most of all. Through My Eyes (Art View) Through my eyes I see lots and lots of water and water lillys and I just get lost in a way that cannot be matched like one of a kind. Through My Eyes (World View) Through my eyes I see a world of different people and that they are all similar in a way. No-one has the same stuff and everything around you thats there will never be and no-one will ever be like you =
