L.I: To create a piece of insect art.
Inspired by art creations Raku Inoue we went outside and collected leaves twigs and other plant debris to create our own insect images. I found it quite hard to let my imagination flow once I had all the items because my options were limited by the items. But I did enjoy using the plants because it was something different for me. Have you interacted with a dragon fly before?

ReplyDeleteWow, well done on creating such a fantastic dragonfly! The plants that you’ve used are great - I especially like the eyes and the antennae!
I really like that you’ve included some facts that you’ve learned about dragonflies, because it adds some background information to your art. I also really like that you have talked about your experience, your inspiration and your challenges while creating it.
When I was younger, I had a very large dragonfly land right on my nose! I was so scared and so excited at the same time, and it was a great experience to see one up close! I had to sit very still until it flew away again. Have you ever had an interaction with a dragonfly before?
Because your post is so great, I’m going to allocate some extra points to it. Keep up the fantastic work and I can’t wait to see your future blog posts!
Ngā mihi,
