Easter Holidays!!

Hey Guys:)

Great news!!! There's just ONE more week left of school before the Easter Holidays!:)
Which means no homework, no assignments and no waking up early!!


 My holidays have already started though, when on Sunday I went to the movies to see Hunger Games, with my brother Nick and two of his friends, Jarrad and Sam.


We arrived just as the lights went out, so it was really dark, I couldn't even see where my brother was, and he was right next to me! Anyway, we found seats, and his friends got two in the row near us.


 We all really liked it, I won't say much, because if you haven't seen it then I don't want to give anything away, All i can say is that it was one of the best movies I've seen!:)
If you like fighting, action, sci-fi movies then I highly recommend you see it!


Hunger Games!!
 My favourite characters in the movie were Rue, Katniss and Peeta.

 Also over the holidays, I'd like to see 21 Jump Street and Wrath of the Titans.


Last but not least, I am most looking forward to Easter,

How To Draw Pikachu's Face

Hey guys:)
Today I will be showing you how to draw Pikachu's Face, step by step.

All you will need today is:
- A Pencil or Pen
- A Rubber
- A Sheet of A4 Paper
- And that's it!

Step 1.
Ok now with this first step, just draw three curved lines, as shown in the picture below.


 
Step 2.
Now turn the two outside lines into pointed ears, then draw a curved line in them, and then colour that in.


Step 3.
With this step just draw a curved face, joining at the bottom of the left ear and the bottom of the right ear.


Step 4.
On the left and right side of the face, draw a small circle, and then in between draw a mouth shape.



Step 5.
You don't need to do much in this step, just lightly colour the two small circles, and also colour in the mouth, darker on the left, slightly lighter at the top and a lot lighter for the bottom of the mouth.


 Step 6.

Just above the mouth, draw a small nose, then draw two circles for the eyes above it, like in the picture below.




 Step 7.
Now just colour in the eyes! Lightly colour in the bottom of the eyes, and around the small circle inside the eyes colour it a little darker, and the small circle white, then lightly colour in the nose.



 And that's all!!!
Now you if want to, you can colour it in, outline it in fine liner or even shade it in!

How To Draw A Flower

Hey guys:)

Today i will be showing you how to draw a flower, step by step.

All you will need is:
- A pencil or pen
- A sheet of A4 paper
- A rubber
- And that's it!

Step1.
OK so with this first step, just roughly draw a small circle, as shown in the picture below.



Step 2.
Now draw six curved lines coming from the circle evenly spaced out.



Step 3.
Now from the bottom of the circle draw two curved leaf shapes with the curved line roughly in the middle.


Step 4.
Just like you did in the 3rd Step, all you need to do is just draw the same curved leaf shapes, all coming off the small circle, with the roughly drawn curved lines in the middle.



Step 5.
Now with the small circle, you don't need to shade it, you can just draw a few small dots in it.



Step 6.
Now from the bottom right leaf, on the left side of the leaf, just draw a curved line going down. That will be the left side of the stem.



Step 7.
Now just do the same as Step 6 and draw a curved line going down on the right, and instead of the bottom of the leaf, you can draw it higher, as shown in the picture below.



Step 8.
From the left side of the stem, just draw the same leaf shape, except have it pointed, and then have a small roughly curved line in the middle.


Step 9.
Now with this next step just draw exactly what you did in Step 8, but on the right instead.


 
Step 10.
If you want you can shade the leaves like this.



Now if you want you can colour it in, outline it in fine liner, or even shade it in even more!

Antique Shopping!!

On Saturday my mum and I went to an Antiques Fair in Nambour, We thought it was going to be a very small sort of show but it wasn't, when we got there it was massive!! There were four different areas to look at. My mum bought an Indian vase that is 50-60 years old, an old perfume bottle and I bought an old brass Chinese Gong, my mum said we could polish it to make it look new but i didn't want to, I like the old looking effect of things.
