Taradale Art


Taradale Art

Last week we did some art inspired our local community, Taradale. First we did a light sketch of our Pau. Then we did the background which was a river. Then we outlined it in vivid and coloured it using both twistables and coloured pencils. We used a photo we had taken our trip to remind us what it looked like.

Next we did a pencil drawing of the Taradale Clock Tower. We were going to go for a walk down there but this afternoon was the day it decided to rain, after weeks and weeks of no rain. We did a lot of detail but left them black and white.

Then the final step was Otatara Pa. We went to Otatara Pa the previous week and took lots of photos. We used these to draw the palisades in charcoal and did clouds and smudging a bit to add detail. Don’t they look amazing!
