What I liked about my Koru Art
Review
I like my Koru Art because the color is bright, bold attractive. I like my background black because the Koru stands out. For my background I have a electric theme with circuit hearts.
If I could do another Koru Art I would try not to go over the pencil lines and do better at shading the big green Koru. I would probably blend the circuit hearts too.
I enjoyed making the Koru Art because I get to color the Koru any color I like and any background I liked too. I didn't like it when I went over the lines and had to make it bigger.
I learnt how to draw Korus by making them fat not skinny. I also learnt how to shade Korus and make them look naturally shaded.

How to make a screen print
What you need
If I can redo my screen print I would try not have a slither because I had one this time. Also maybe can also do a cool colour one.
I really enjoyed making my screen print because it was a new experiment and it was really cool to do it. I also didn't like it a little because it got very messy.
I learnt what a squeegee and frame is. I learnt how to do it as well as finishing it because I was away.
