7) Identify something that is new to you from completing the mood board - like knowing about a particular artist for instance and making a connection now, to your kaupapa that is forming.

Composing Diary

Day 1
I had to think of what i am going to do for my composition so i thought of doing a solo and i had to first come up with words, the following period i will be thinking of words and maybe adding a instrumental. 

Day 2
I had finally thought of words due to a 30 sec solo performance were i came up with lyrics that was floating around in my head and i was looking at instrumentals but none of the could fit the rhythm and so far the lyrics was just working all i had to do is convert the random words into a small song.

Day 3
I had started converting the song and already thought of a title for the song "Ask" once the layout of words had been sorted i had a little help from someone to get a better understanding on what the song is and about, so far actually saying it out loud isn't sounding perfect so i just had to refine the words and work on other aspects of the song.

The song which i did Doesn't have a name until i have  came up with one but for now (Lights out remix). my feeling which was going through my head was happy cause i love to perform in huge crowd's it was fun, actually practice the song instead of come up with random lyrics that goes really good to lights out.

a lot needs to be rehearsed for me.

My Why

This wonderful piece of work is my WHY as in why do I do art why do I draw so nice why do I do the things i do so first i would have to brainstorm Ideas of why I do this Second chose the ones stand out most to me. I have chosen Culture and Religion because my maori side in the family I wish to learn more about, Religion the things I see as I believe and know that everyone has a path they would have to take. these are my why in art and life.

Jane Crisp
I have chosen my first artist as Jane Crisp as i seen a small sentence i have seen
""Beauty and realness of the natural world is what captivates me. I do not paint real scenes or situations as a photographic camera would capture, although I attempt to paint reality"
I have found this really inspiring not only of her work but as what she believes in this is a small piece of her collection I have seen online.

Tony Harrington
His work exposes issues of culture and identity as he embraces both Pakeha and Maori as one (Aotearoa and New Zealand) together his carvings inspired me in some of my drawings his symbolism in his work is insane and the work which he does he does out of CULTURE.


Leonardo da Vinci
I have chosen Leonardo da Vinci because of his realism when it comes to his surroundings in every work he has painted he was so many things that i would love to be as a artist
