Google Draw ART-

 We are learning to create art using the tools in  google draw.

Steps:

1.   We took a photo of ourselves or chose an image from the internet
2.  We then used the curved line to go around each shape at a time, e.g around the face, then the eye etc
3.    After we had put a line around each line we would then set the colour to transparent.
4.   When we were finished outlining all of the shapes we then chose a different colour for each shape.
5.   We made sure to improve our work by using the gradient tool.
6.   To finish we chose a colour for our background.

Google Drawing and Google Doc

We combined writing with our art.  Look at our cool descriptive writing to match the Taniwha eyes we created on google drawings.

GOOGLE DRAWINGS- Piet Mondrian

Google Drawing APP

Since a lot of the middle and senior classes no longer have Ipad in their classes, I thought I would encourage some different uses for their chrome books.
Currently they are only used for internet searching and browsing, slideshow presentations, word documents and the odd survey.

Piet Mondrian Art

We looked at a range of art that was created by Piet Mondrian.  We then went into our google drawings and created a new document.
On our blank page we inserted lines and changed the thickness  of them.  Carefully using the line tools we created straight lines, horizontally and vertically within our rectangle.

Once we had done this we then inserted rectangles and squares using the shape tool

Lastly we filled the shapes with colour using the primary colours.

They came up very effective.
