Samoan Artwork

As part of Samoan Language Week, we created some artwork. We selected an image to draw that related to an area of life in Samoa – octopus, starfish, crayfish, shells… Once drawn, we traced it twice to show the image 3 times. We used symmetry to divide each image into quarters and used pastels to colour it in. We experimented with primary and secondary colours to try to camouflage the image, while overlapping it with a flower that represents the teuila or ginger flower. This is the national flower of Samoa.
