In Room 12 we have been learning about Aboriginal Dot art and exploring how they paint stories about the natural world. We have done many experiments in dot art using earbuds as paintbrushes, yet recently some students research taught them that the Aboriginals used sticks to paint. They tested this in class and found them a much better "paintbrush". Soon after most of our class have converted to using sticks to paint. Here are some of our works of art in different stages of progress.
What do you think of our art?
Aboriginal art is very hared to do. So they should be very proud.
ReplyDeleteI agree you should all be proud, but what makes it hard to do?
DeleteThe spacing in the dots, and fulling up the gaps.
DeleteCongratulations room 12. I know from our art workshop with the teachers that it takes patience and concentration to complete the dot art. I think you have persevered well.
ReplyDeleteAwesome work Room 12. You have done a great job with some stunning effects
ReplyDeleteThe aboriginals dot art was amazing. Everyone was really trying hard to leave a space inbeten the dots.
ReplyDeleteWhy was the spaces difficult?
Delete"inbeten" should be inbetween
I think that we done a good job on our art. It was quite challenging putting dots all over the page.
ReplyDeleteWhat was it challenging?
Delete"did" not "done"

ReplyDeleteI realize that using sticks is easier than using air buds. It was hard getting all the spaces and dots to be just right but we gave it a try and succeeded.
That was a clever idea using stick. Why do you think they were better than ear buds?
DeleteDevin
DeleteBecause a stick is much thinner than a air bud and a air bud make bigger dots
The art was so hard because you had to be very steady. it was cool when we got our sticks.
ReplyDeleteIt was really hard doing it because you really got to fill up the spaces and you had to do dots. I also found it really fun.
ReplyDeleteI think that we did a very good job at our art. It took a very long time to put the dots all over the page.
ReplyDeleteThat last comment I did by the way Mr Wood
ReplyDeletewati and jack
ReplyDeletewhen all of our art morphed together it looks like the real thing! It was really fun but hard spacing the dots.
Great word "morphed" to describe the effect of the art!
DeleteYour names should have capital letters.

ReplyDeleteThay sould all be proud of it.
ReplyDeleteDot art is a very paçtient art and its fun but it does take a long time to finish.
the art was very hard because they took so long to do.
ReplyDeleteIt was really fun but really hard because all of the dots kept getting stuck together.I hope we can do it again and I hope I get really good at it.
