 * ** My Reflection of Progress in the Arts ** I was pourd of the coluers of my painting. I got better at typeing interesting things. I leart how to use blocks to create 3-D effects. My next step is to practise useing pointilisim to give a 3-D effect. When I took my photo I put the camera on the side and it was a big shed. I balaced the the photo realy good in the photo. My favourite photo was green and black because added 3-D effect. I would like to add more expenment more effects to make it better. ||

2009

 Here is my art for lamb and calf day 2009. I like my pottery vase and my leaf plate. My paper mache bowl and my hyper toofa pot. I like my painting of a new fern leaf. I learnt how to make a vase by rolling out clay and putting it around a cylinder I rolled out clay and rolled a leaf on top of it to make the leaf pattern.

I wonder what we will do next year ?
