Day 21 | My thoughts on art by Ella

Hi,

The boys are not here this week, and so I thought for today's blog I would talk to you about art. I love art! It is my favourite thing to do and I am lucky as I have lots of art supplies. I have sketch books, sketching pencils, water colours and pastels.

I love my sketching pencils as the lead is different in each one, I have them from H's which are the lightest to B's which are the darkest. I have some shading pencils too that help when shading art work.

I use how to draw books and you tube videos a lot, but while we are on lockdown my Mum has organised for our good friend Izzy to teach me art on face-time. This is her website http://izzyfaithart.com/. I think Izzy is really talented, she is good at art that she is going to university in September to do a degree in it.

I am still trying to find my art style. I try to do realistic art, and I love drawing anime type characters. I need to practice more with my watercolours too.

Art makes me feel happy and brightens up my day, it makes me smile and is relaxing. When I am older I want to be an artist.

So here are 5 things the plastic is doing to our oceans. 1. is making our beaches look like trash The beach is a nice place family and friends can go to. Unforceitly the plastic washes up on the sand making it not as nice as we would wish. 2. marine animals dying These poor creatures are being killed because of pollution. The reason they are dying is because they ever eat the plastic or get stuck in it which is the reason they die. 3. marine wildlife home being taken over by plastic Would you like your home to be covered in old plastic? We certainly wouldn’t but the same goes for the marine wildlife they don’t like their home being destroyed by plastic. 4. there is 5.25 trillion pieces of plastic in our oceans This is a handy thing to know because that is a lot of plastic in our oceans but that ocean doesn’t only belong to marine wildlife it belongs to us as well and
