To Tatau Waahi - Our Place

Janet Powell —

From the fantastic view from our learning space window, we are capturing our impression of the harbour and what it means to us with paint.

Raupo have been learning how interpret what they see by focusing on the shapes and colours and textures of the landscape in their preliminary sketches. They have been careful to interpret what is real by only including what they can see. They have also focussed on the skills needed with the paintbrush to create the effects of texture and features such as sky and water. You can see in the photos the progression of these beautiful works of art.
