hi my name is Olivia age:12

WALTS: 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) Success Criteria I was brave - I have completed four distinctly different works?

I was brave

Did I avoid lines and outlines?

in some of my pictures

Is my work well proportioned ?

Did I use texture well ?

I think that I did well

Did I really take a risk and draw what I see, not what I expect or imagine to be there?

I think that I did well after I practiced some drawings

Questions to challenge myself! why do I like or not like a particular work?

I liked the work I did on black paper

Why did I enjoy or not enjoy a particular style?

I enjoyed pop art because the lines were bold

If I was to choose a tiny bit of my work that I love - what would it be and why?

the mouth because of the expression

Next steps for myself?

My evaluation for PE : I think that I do particapate well in PE but I could improve on running straight into the ball in touch rugby

[] Also have a look at the book "Contempory NZ Art", Pg 30, it is o n the shelf. There are a number of 'clay' books too that might give inspiration? There is a laminated reading on my desk about the sculptor Jim Cooper too.

Please write me a brief biography. List Stringer's major influences Explain why you have chosen his work to study Tell me what you have learnt from copying his work that you will try to bring into your own. What 'style' of artist is Stringer?



Through my eyes I see that the world has a lot of problems and it isn't perfect, there are good things and bad things. There are some people that are good and try their best, but there will be some people that don't try at all and give up. But you know that life can be unfair and it is full of good and bad people.

Through my eyes I see that there are a lot of people doing certain things that they love doing and like sculptures. I have loved doing this medium. My inspiration to start doing sculptures was Terry Stringer, he does sculptures of people and faces so I did a sculpture face made out of clay instead instead of hard like Terry Stringer would use.
