Maori Pastell Art

For Kotahitanga week not only had we made a maori cardboard instrument ( porotiti ) , and the Pou Whenua , but we have also done some Maori Art using Pastel. First we chose a maori object , like the maori fish hook , or the dragon of protection. I chose the Fish Hook. Then we drew squigly lines over it and afterwards went over it in black Pastell. However before the black outline we drew coulour-ful patterns in it.
