Customising Sneakers

L.I To customize a pair sneakers.  

This DLO below displays my vision of how I would customize a pair of sneakers. This activity was inspired by a Kiwi Artist, Rangi-Haira Jaxon Greening, who has used his passion for art to create his own customized sneakers. He has created some iconic shoes, such as creating KFC, Spongebob, 4 spuare themed shoes. Last weeek we were challenged to create a fresh pair of customised sneakers. The theme of my shoes was about the Disney Movie Series : Monsters inc. I used the colors blue and purple to represent one of the main characters(James P. Sullivan) and the green representing another main charachter(Mike Wazowski). The color pink represents Boo who was a main asset to the storyline in the movie. I also included the Monsters University logo to make the shoe complete.

I really enjoyed doing this activity because I was able to go outside of my comfort zone and use my of my creativity. 

Here are the results

Vincent van Gogh Timeline

LI: To create a timeline to show the life of Vincent van Gogh. 

This week in groups of 3-4 we created a timeline using Padlet explaining the life of Vincent van Gogh. Vincent van Gogh is a dutch artists that created paintings called 'Still life'. Still life is capturing a moment in time by painting it. We collaborated together to complete this task, the people in my group were Juel, Sulia and Heavenly. We all found out interesting facts and things about Vincent van Gogh. The thing that I found interesting was that out of a strong love for his girlfriend he cut of a part of his ear, because it is not very often someone cuts of part of his ear for a reason like that. During his lifetime he made over 800 paintings and 1,100 sketchings. His very first painting was called 'The potato eaters'.
