Mounted Art Work

LI: To mount our final results of our quatrefoils. This week we finished off our quatrefoils. Once we finished our quatrefoils we cut around it. After that, we wrote down why we chose the designs and colors on our quatrefoils. We showed our writing to the teachers, so they could proofread it. Once we showed the teacher our writing, we got a piece of white paper. On the paper we had to display our layout of the quatrefoils. We couldn't glue it yet. After that we ruled the open space to put our writing on. Once we ruled it we went on a google draw and added our writing in. On page setup we put in our measurements of the space of the white piece of paper. Once we did the page setup we asked the teachers to print it out. After that we cut around our writing. When we finished, we started gluing our quatrefoils and writing onto the piece of white paper. We also glued our names on the bottom right corner. I am very proud of my quatrefoils. I think that it turned out good.

Quatrefoil Art Work



LI: To create quatrefoils using paint, pastel and colouring pencils. This week we did art. We had to go onto our three quatrefoils we made. Then we had to do the quatrefoils using paint, pastel and colouring pencils. For the Max Gimblett quatrefoil we had to use the big sized quatrefoil and we had to use paint, for the Armistice day quatrefoil we had to use the medium sized quatrefoil and we had to use pastel. Lastly for the Christmas themed quatrefoil we had to use the small sized quatrefoil and we had to use colouring pencils. First I started off with the Max Gimblett, then I did the Armistice and lastly I did the Christmas themed one. For the Max Gimblett quatrefoil, I decided to first draw the scribbles. I accidentally painted where I wasn't supposed to paint. Even though I painted where I wasn't supposed to paint, I think that I did a good job. For the Armistice quatrefoil I think that I also did pretty good, same for the Christmas quatrefoil.

The large quatrefoil is in the style of Max Gimblett. The colors green, blue, yellow and red represent my favorite colors.

The medium quatrefoil was in the style of Armistice Day. The cross represents the soldiers who died for countries, the poppies represents peace, the half green background represents the grass and the half orange and yellow represents the sunset.

The small quatrefoil is in the style of Christmas. The ornaments represent the ornaments that go on a Christmas tree, the holly represents Christmas and the candy canes represent the sweetness of Christmas.

Max Gimblett- Quatrefoils


LI: To learn about Max Gimblett and to make quatrefoils digitally. This week we learnt about Max Gimblett. First we got into partners. My partner was Miiana. Then we had to go onto a slide. For the slide we had to write down when Max Gimblett was born, when he grew up, where his art was displayed, what happened in 2015 and what happened in 2016. Then we had to write down the definition of quatrefoil, why Max uses this design and we had to include 6 images. After that we had to write down what was the installation of Art of Remembrance. We also had to include a image and a video of the Art of Remembrance. Once we did that we had to design three quatrefoils. One had to be Max Gimblett's work, the Armistice day and Christmas.
