Once again we have been assigned to compare and contrast but with different pieces of artwork and two different artists. The two piece of artworks we are comparing is the ‘Lazy Day in Paradise’ from Daniella Hulme and the ‘Weeping Woman’ from Pablo Picasso. They both use unique types of painting. Like Daniella Hulme’s type of painting is modern painting and Pablo Picasso’s type of painting is Cubism.

Well let me put it this way Pablo Picasso’s paintings have so many interesting contrasts. On his painting ‘The Weeping Woman’ he paints with different perspectives and angles. Wait... but that is his style anyways, cubism painting. ‘The Weeping Woman’ has so many opposite colours like yellow and white come on they don’t go. ‘The Weeping Woman’ looks like she is crying because her face just looks so depressing.

Daniella Hulme uses modern themes in her painting. I think that even though she is European her painting of ‘A Lazy Day In Paradise’ shows that she knows how to include her husbands culture. She is married to a Samoan man. Her colours that she uses are tropical and so jaw dropping. In my opinion I just think its a pretty girl lying down in an island on a nice day.

I think they (Picasso and Hulme) are both talented at art. Picasso’s perspectives are pretty out of it and Daniella Hulmes use of colours are so beautiful. But who comes out on top for me is Pablo Picasso. ‘The Weeping Woman’ is just so fascinating.

The Big Competition

Room18, along with the year 7’s and 8’s have this competition going in our school. Here are the rules! If you get a bin- it award from the assembly, you will earn 50 points for your class. The Principals award, which is the sticker that you get for sitting up in assembly, is equivalent to 10 points.These are some of the ways that we can earn points.

If my class wins the competition, I would like to go to Rainbows End! It has lots of fun rides like the fear fall, power surge, and a lot more, and even though I've been there before, I would love the opportunity to return.

On the day we find who the winning class is, I hope we don't get a nasty disasterous surprises don’t happen, because we might be the wining class. It might rain or be disaster’s. Or even we might lose.
If we won I would of be the happiest boy on earth. This will be the most enjoyable day of my life. I will be singing “Oh happy day”.
So there you have it that’s the big competition.
