Ancient Greece

This term's kaupapa is Ancient Greece.


We have already learnt how to draw two types of columns, the Dorian and the Ionic. Both of these were used in Ancient Greek Architecture.
Dorian Column




We have also learnt some of the traditional greek designs and incorporated them onto our greek vases. We plan to make Greek vases and urns using paper mache and these are a work in progress






Greek Vases.

  9. Kia ora Alex Thanks for your comment. Our class reckons you should have a growth mindset with your art. This means to believe you can do it and you will be surprised with what happens. Ask your teacher if you don't know what this means. Good luck!
