3D Shapes

For maths we had to learn how to draw 3D shapes.

We had to draw a cube, cone, pyramid, cylinder, and a rectangular prism. 

We had to make one of each shape non-transparent and one of each shape transparent.

I found shading in the 3D shapes tricky. I enjoyed drawing the shapes and making them 3D.

Calendar Art

For Calendar art this year we were doing geometric NZ native birds.

I chose to do the native kingfisher. Firstly, we had to print an image of the bird we wanted to draw and trace the image on a window. 

Secondly, we drew geometric shapes inside the bird, and then shaded them in.

 

Thirdly, we coloured the the background using dye. 

Lastly, we outlined the bird and the shapes inside.

 

I found tracing the bird on the piece of paper tricky. I enjoyed shading the shapes on the inside of the bird.
