George Brothers provide advice in Kowhai...

The George Brothers have been getting curious and creative in art this week with Kowhai. We have been looking at myths in our writing and space as our topic. So for art we created the two and were creating mythical suns.
Curious and Creative have been whispering in our ears about how we could design and make our mythical Maori suns and what we could add to make them better. They have been busy helping us by giving us advice whether we wanted it or not; they think that they know best (especially Creative)! Curious and Creative helped us through all the steps, even the tricky part with the black sticky PVA glue which we put around the outsides of our suns.
They saw all the fun that we were having working with pastels that they decided that giving advice was not as fun as trying it out; so they had a go too.


Curious and Creative thought that they could make a mythical moon to go with our suns...





But to us it looks like a banana.
What do you think?

  1. We think your suns look great Kowhai well done. Even better that you got the help from Curious and Creative George.
    Kauri thinks their mythical moons look a bit like bananas too.

  2. You are very trusting letting these little monkeys go near PVA :) I'm sure you talked them through how to use it without sticking your hands together.

  3. Manuka think that your suns are terrific! Perhaps Curious and Creative just need to practise their moons a little more and then they won't look so much like bananas.
