Do you love NZ native birds? First view a slideshow of native birds and do some drawing and exploring with materials. Then create a portrait of your favourite or more if you can't choose!

The wind is a great resource we have in Aotearoa. It is reusable energy that doesn't bring too much pollution when generating power. In my travelling time, I once found a chocolate and cocoa factory, using wind energy from the windmill. Today, we explore the possibility of enhancing our art or sculpture by the wind. Wouldn't it be nice to see your drawing fly high?
In this class you will learn how to make your own unique handmade paper by using recycled newspaper and other natural materials such as leaves and flowers.
