Term 3 Week 2 - Art Update

Art Update
My kaupapa this term is looking at ocean animals and the effects pollution (rubbish) has on them.
(I also apologise for some of the photos looking very inadequate, good thing I'm not in photography)

This is the infamous turtle painting. I have yet to finish it because the water still isn't blended too well and the turtle's flippers (especially the top left one) were accidentally nicked in blue. The rubbish around him could be better too.

 
This is the pencil drawing (original) of the turtle, I may add some shading to the water but other than that I think it is finished.

This is a drawing of a dolphin surrounded in the trash, he has a 6-pack beer ring caught in his mouth and the water he is swimming in is absolutely horrid. I still have to finish drawing some rubbish around him but the main point of the drawing is done.

This is a drawing of multiple situations animals are stuck in due to rubbish in the ocean, I have been using this as a supply of ideas to do my bigger drawings, I'm not too sure yet whether I will put this on my folio board.

Cooking Methods - Home Economics

Lately, in Home Economics we have been learning about nutrition. We had to do a mix and match of cooking methods and post it to our blog. 

Cooking your food with different methods are great to figure out how to lower salt, sugar and fat intake. For example, cooking your food in oil is not a great method if you want to lower fat intake. Also even just boiling your food can strip your nutrients from your food. You may notice your vegetable lose their colour. There are many different methods to cook your food and trying all methods is a great way to experiment.
