Taniwha Art

 Taniwha Art

The students enjoyed searching for pictures of taniwha and discussing their details.  We read a book called Taniwha by Robyn Kahukiwa which we enjoyed.  The students designed a range of pencil sketches of taniwha and then chose their favourite one to enlarge.  They used pastel to colour the taniwha and then a black outline in pastel.  Dye was put around their work and painted texture.

Enjoy looking at some of their designs:
