Pacific Ocean

My special place is in Tonga because I love the clear water and how you can see fishes while you’re swimming. I like it there because we jump off the rocks.  I choose this special place because it is just a great place and it is really special to me. My family and I went there for 3 weeks for Christmas and had a lovely holiday. Tonga reminds me of swimming and having fun with my family. My dad’s mum is living in Tonga and her village is called Nuku Nuku. I went there to visit her and my aunty’s name is also Senolita. The photo was taken in Tonga on the beach when it was sun set.

The artist that I have chosen to base my artwork on is Daniella Hulme. She is a really famous artist for being quite modern. I tried to make my art colourful, but the  colours that I mostly used was green and yellow. I painted a girl in front of a beach and bushes.

Senolita Van Gogh and Matisse

Room 21 was told to look at these 2 famous artist which was Van Gogh and Henri Matisse. Henri Matisse was famous for Fauvism and Van Goghs style of art is Expressionism . Vincent Van Gogh chopped off his ear and sent it to his girlfriend. It sounds really painful.

I was looking at Van Gogh's Sunflower and I saw in his art that he has been uses bright colors and vibrant colors like yellow, green, orange, to brown and some other colors kind of like Henri Matisse.

I also looked at Henri Matisse's art work which was La Musique on his art I saw him use vibrant colors and dark too. I saw a lady singing songs and playing the guitar. In the background there were leaves behind the lady that was singing. I can see that he used lot of vibrant colors.

Van Gogh and Henri Matisse uses the same kind of colors like yellow and brown.

I really enjoyed looking at La Musique because it was really interesting and I can understand it too. I can I tell that she is singing because she has a book on the floor so she can get the music for the guitar.
