Water Colour Paintings

For our calendar art we used a dry brush painting technique, we realised that we did not need to cover  all the paper as blank white areas enhanced our paintings.

Round Wine Creations

I won a First Prize for my Round Wine Creation at Paihia School's Pet Show Day. I learnt how to use an icing nozzle that Mum bought for me to use. I might be a baker and decorate cakes when I grow up. It is good fun icing cakes especially when I could taste it. Everyone liked my clock that I made. Mrs Neumann took my clock to the Bay of Islands Show and I won a second prize and also got $5.00.
