Natural Leaf Art


I got an idea from my mums tattoos. They are called mandala. They look like patterns made out of flowers.

I felt creative and I liked collecting the leaves with my sister. The challenging part was making it. The leaves wouldn't sit flat so I asked mum if she could help and iron them out.

Andy Goldsworthy:
I like that he only uses natural stuff. I like his stone art and how he makes it balance.
His artwork makes me feel great because he doesn't use any man made stuff. That means he doesn't make any rubbish.

  1. Hi Danny, You may need to put you photo in differently. You will need to be able upload it or put it into google photos maybe?

  2. Yes Danny, I like your thinking about how Andy Goldsworthy uses natural items so he doesn't make rubbish. His products are what we call biodegradable. I wonder if you can find out what that means. And like Mrs Hall, I'd love to see a photo too!

    1. Biodegradable means when something breaks down into the earth like fruit and stuff. Not plastic or nappies.

  3. It was very clever thinking to use your mums’ tattoo as inspiration for your own piece of art! It is also great that you find a solution to the challenging leaves. You should be proud, well done!

  4. Kia ora Daniel, I am so glad I came and had a look at your blog. I love what you have created with leaves, using colour and shapes to create something beautiful. I am glad you enjoyed the process... the making is as important as the result I think. When you wrote about the artist and his stone art I immediately wanted to run outside and make something too. Very inspiring!
