Title: Negative Space Acrylic Pour

Intro:Negative space is white or blank in art, And my class nikua have made negative space acrylic pours. 

WALT: Are plan was to make colorful desk tops with the wood we used

Explain:First we started with watching a video, which I didn't like because she made the worst joke and thought it was funny, But is showed us how it is done. We started with putting white all over the canvas(Are canvas are just pieces of wood). Then we poured the color of our choice on the canvas. Then we used a straw to get the paint to the corners. Once we had done that we moved on to the next task. The next task was simple. All we had to do is dab the balloon in the paint. Some of my class spread the paint so there was no negative space left. 

Reflection:I personally thought this art was cool but I could have chosen brighter colors to make it look better. 

Question:What do you think?

Pointillism art

Pointillism art 

W.A.L.T learn how to make a apple using pointillism 
Pointillism art is one of my favorite type of art. Because I’m bad at line’s, So I was happy when my teacher said that we were making a apple using pointillism. Pointillism is a art style using dots to make objects instead of line’s. My teacher gave us a video to watch and copy it .
The first thing I did was make a outline for the apple and then I made the stem with the leaf. Then I went over the out line with a vivid but I did not use line I used dots because that was what we were meant to do since it was pointillism and then I colored in the leaf not with dots though because I thought that looked cool. Then I made the stem black because I thought it looked cool. Then I made more of a outline by putting more dots slightly to the inside. And that is how I made my pointillism apple.
This is my art 
Have you ever done a pointillism art

My art

My Art
W.A.L.T.copying the outline of a image. 
I'm not a artist, I'm not really even that good at art. But this dose not make me dislike it. In fact its one of my favorite things to do at school. I have made a cool art project recently . and I thought It will be cool to blog it. I quite like formula E and I thought it will be fun to draw there upcoming car what they will use in 2021.
THIS IS MY ART 
It is not my best piece of art. If I did it again Ill make it longer and make the wheels even and the floor of the car as well. 
What do think I could do better next time?.








THE IMAGE
 this is what I was trying to draw.

planting totara

Planting totara
it was Saturday school for the week was over. this would be amazing because you could go see your friends. but sadly this was not the case thanks to lock down so i was bored at home until i saw my mum and dad up on top of the hill. I was curios so i went up to see what was going on. They were planting trees I asked if they needed help "we do not need it but if you wanna help you can" my mum said. I did because I did't have anything to do. First we needed to place the plants on the ground so when they grow they wont hit each other. Then we dug holes to put the plants in then we went and fulled in  the holes with dirt that we dug so we didn't need more dirt. as we were doing this i grabbed some water from inside because my dad was thirsty from digging the holes after that my job was taking  the plants to my dad who was digging the holes then my mum and sister were planting the trees ones we had finished on top of the hill we went to the bottom of the hill to plant the rest there weren't meany so i didn't need to help. so then I made a step then my sister joined then my mum then my dad. once we finished we went up to the hose and had some lunch.

air fried donuts

air fried donuts by Riley Jury
My class (nikau) has been trying to find ways to do inquiry. in our bubbles. So our teacher, Mr. P has
given us(nikau class) some task’s. These are; Cooking, Science, Coding and Gardening.  I chose cooking
because I felt like donuts.

Here are the  Ingredients ;
Cooking spray
1/2 c. milk
1/4 c. plus 1 tsp. granulated sugar, divided
1 (0.25-oz.) packet or 2 1/4 tsp. active-dry yeast
2 c. all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. kosher salt
4 tbsp. melted butter
1 large egg
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract


First we greased a large bowl with coconut oil. Then we used a small microwave safe bowl to heat up the
milk. Then we added a teaspoon of sugar to the milk and stirred. Then we sprinkled some yeast into the
milk and  waited for it to rise.  While we were waiting for it to rise, we put salt and flour into a medium
sized bowl and whisked it together.  Then we used the greased large bowl (greased with coconut oil) and
put the sugar, butter, egg, and vanilla.  Now the yeast had risen, we (my mum and I) had to tip the yeast
into the large bowl with the sugar, butter, egg, and vanilla. Then we put flour and salt into the large bowl.
And then we mixed it. Then we put flour on a board then we put the dough on the board then kneaded the
dough till it was elastic. Then we formed it into a ball and put it in an oiled bowl. Then we covered it with a
tea towel and put it in a warm area. And leave it for an hour. In that time it should have doubled in size.
Then we put the dough on the board and punched it down. Then we put the dough and board in a corner
and sprinkle flour on the table then we made the dough into a big slab and used hockey cutters to make
them fun shapes. Then we put them into an air fryer. We only could do three or five at a time. But they
only took 3 minutes to cock. When they are all cooked it's nice to bump them in malted coconut oil and
dip them in cinnamon sugar. This is a long but easy way to make donuts. But they tasted amazing.
We found that without cinnamon sugar it tastes like sweet fry bread. Have you ever made donuts using a
air fryer?
