Mrs Raewyn Harris - Napier artist


We were very lucky to have Mrs Raewyn Harris work with us last Thursday. Mrs Harris has retired from full time teaching and is now tutoring art in schools as well as pursuing her own art.

 She taught us about planning our artworks before we start and  to only use a few colours.

 The artworks were inspired by our trip to the Rocky shore and our visit to Moteo marae.

Can you see where this view is from? 
Did you know that some artists like working in groups of three?


We have all done some writing to go with our trips.

Jasmine is working hard to cut accurately!

Georgia and Simone are very focused on their artworks!
