Kowhai Trees

We practised our colour mixing skills to paint our sky. Our challenge was to make as many different blues as we could.
The next challenge was to use a craft knife to carefully cut the cardboard. It was tricky because we couldn't cut all the way through the cardboard. After that we ripped off the top layer of cardboard to make a bumpy texture for our branches.
We practised our colour mixing to make different shades of greens and yellows for our kowhai tree. 

When painting the corrugated cardboard we had to turn the paintbrush to paint all the grooves.
