My Mum

“ THE WII IS MINE”.Whenever I hear that funny sentence that Mum always shouts in her loudest voice me and my brother always start laughing so loud that the whole neighborhood might hear us.  My Mum normally doesn’t come into school to pick me up because she blends in with all the kids.  With her blue jeans, puffy black jacket and her blue and pink scarf you would think that every day she was going to see the snow.  Her hair is black with tiny strips of brown in it.  She has eyes the color of hazelnuts.  Although she cleans my smelly guinea pigs cages out she always smells like her favourite perfume.

My Mum is very sweet.  She is a very supportive especially when it comes to my sport and school work.  At my soccer she is always there to support me.  Mum always cheers for me on the sideline at my soccer games.  Whenever I’m stuck on a maths question or any other subject she would always give me clues to help me get the answers.

“Hey where is my coffee” Mum says this when she is looking for her coffee like normal.  You will usually find her coffee in the microwave where she has left it while trying to heat it up.  Sometime you will find little drops of milk on the bench where she has accidentally spilt the milk while trying to make a coffee.

Once she takes you through a tour of our house you instantly know that she absolutely loves animals.  You can tell that she love’s animals because she has four cats,one dog,two fish,one bunny rabbit and nine guinea pigs.  I can tell that she loves art because in her room you will always find pictures that she drew,pictures that she panted and lots of art books.  A couple of years ago Mum entered a competition and the winner got a free wii.  A couple of months after she entered that competition someone called her telling her that she had won a free wii.  Ever since then Mum always kept saying a funny sentence that made us giggle and that sentence was “THE WII IS MINE”.

Art

A couple of weeks ago Mrs Morton taught us some art techniques for when we are painting pictures.These are the techniques.
Smooth/even   Shade/tint       Blending
Dry Brush        Glaze/wash       outline          Impasto

We had to learn each step at the same time otherwise none of us would know what to do.She also taught us some different types of lines. These are the types of lines that she taught us.













About a week after Mrs Morton taught us the techniques, Mrs Roil gave us a picture to paint using our techniques that we learnt with Mrs Morton.












This is what my artwork looked like after I painted it using all the techniques and different types of lines.


I’m not quite finished because I was away when they finished but I did most of it with the rest of the class.
