Plastic Pollution
Geof Knight
This book has a lot of information on how plastic pollution is in general, but also has information on how to improve the environment and the solution to the problem. This book was a persuasive book. I think something the author did very will was he made it very clear that he wanted to have a better environment so the readers knew he actually wanted to help the environment. The author explained what plastic pollution is, how it’s bad, and how they can change it. The book not only talks about the pollution, but he explained about recycling and banning some of the products.
First I took a canvas to work the clay on. Then I took a wire cutter to cut a piece of clay which is a earthy material that hardens when dry or heated. I picked a mold for my bowl, so that I have a hollow container to give shape. I made some coil which is a long roll of clay, and used the scoring brush to scratch the clay surface. I add some slip which is water-downed clay. I repeated this step but i made swirly.
I thought the swirlys looked cool and was easy to make so I made swirlys around the bowl. I also colored it coral inside because it looked really bright and fun. The little balls i made helped to give the bowl more design.
I thought I should have filled in the holes in the bowl so I can actually put food in it.
It’s when two colors are mixed by water. -How to apply wash technique?First you mix water with the paints to make it wet, then take the first color and apply it on the paper, and take the second color and add it on the first color so it’s like a color fading into another color.
He started Penman and went to Penman school. He became the youngest master penman out of 12 master penman in the world. What made him special? He mixed calligraphy into his penman to give the words and picture more life and a stronger message.
I think i tried to put picture beside the word to give the view a better understanding. I also did some different fonts on the words.
-The style of drawing letters, the size of some things, colors used, why you made it the way it appears. I mostly wanted the color to fade away as the word went on. I wanted it to look very colorful and i got the look but using different colors for different words.
I think that in my background color made the whole art look very colorful. I think Momoko’s work was very cool she did different effects with the water. I think I should have done the wash technique on a lot more other words so that it will look a lot more colorful. Talk about your work by using some of the following terms
