Art - Mono print and Tongan tapa

😊Kia Ora Bloggers😊,

This week we have been doing some mono print and some Tongan tapa art. Doing the Art was very fun. For the mono print art first we had to explore Maori patterns then choose to draw an animal then  once you finished drawing it you have to put patterns into it. Then you use printing ink and roll it onto a board and then you put your drawn animal and put it on the board and then you draw over the lines again and you have to put pressure on it so that when you take it out you can see the lines clearly. Once you've done that you take it off and then your done. You can add pastels if you want just don't add to much colour. For the Tongan tapa art you had to explore Tongan pattern and the get a 20x20 brown piece of paper and fold it into quarters. Then with your vivid you draw a Tongan pattern in each square put newspaper under it so that the vivid doesn't leak through the paper and onto the table. I didn't do any because I had to do my mono print.

Hope you enjoyed reading my blog
