Maori Gods Art

                 Maori Gods Art

Hello and welcome back. This week was Maori Language Week. We have been focusing on Maori legends. The legend we read was " In The Beginning". It is about Papa, mother earth, Ranginui, father sky, and their 6 sons. The sons are:
Tangaroa, Tane, Tu, Huamia, Rongo and Tawhitimatea. Once we read the story we had to choose a son from the story and we had to draw it the way we would want them to look. We were allowed to change the gender of the god if we wanted to. We could draw them however we liked. We could draw whatever we wanted to draw as long as we add a Maori touch to it at the end. As my god I chose Tangaroa, god of the sea. I changed my god's gender to a girl. I also made her wear a dress that has a ocean print on it. Once we finished our brainstorm in our art books and coloured it, we could do a good copy. Once I am complete I shall show you. Well that's all for today. Blog You Later.
