The students at Tamaki Intermediate were looking at landscapes and cityscapes. The following cityscapes were based on different views of the Auckland city skyline and the landscapes were based on a study of New Zealand landscapes and features one could find in a New Zealand landscape.
My students at Tamaki Intermediate started the year in Art looking at the importance of the land and the sea to the people of New Zealand. My Year 8 students did a lino print of a landscape which had to include some form of land e.g. rocks, cliffs, islands etc and water and sky. They explored the work of various New Zealand landscape artists to give them inspiration. They then placed the finished print into a "frame" of objects/things you could find in a landscape e.g. trees, a boat, a lighthouse etc. They coloured their "frame" drawings in with pastel. The Year 7 students were working on a similar theme but instead of doing a lino print as their main feature they did a fish. All the following works of art should tell a story about our great country New Zealand.
The Year 7 and Year 8 students were looking at the topic of birds for their art compositions. The Year 7 students developed their bird sketches with black vivid and charcoal and then arranged them on a background of paper they had dyed and then woven. The Year 8 students did a lino print with the bird their main focus and then placed their print in a patterned frame.
