Water Into Colour Painting

 Welcome to my blog,

Today I'm going to tell you some technique I used for water colour painting. We had to use technique like layering or glazing. The easiest one is movement because all you have to do is brush strokes. There are many techniques to use but we only use 9 to keep it simple.

The first thing to do is add a little water colour paint. Then put some water on  it until it has the intensity you have. Having less dilution gives you more paint but it can look more like water the more you put. Glazing is another good and easy technique. Its easily layer of transparent colour is washed over a previous dry layer of paint.

Layering is also a pretty easy thing to do because you just have to paint something random and add another paint when it drys. When water colouring you need to tone a couple things like making it darker. Or making it way lighter.

Sometimes when water colouring you need to add some intensity to your work or lower intensity. Like shadows and stuff. Tinting is the same as intensity like adding more water to weaker the intensity so its more lighter than dark. Movement is basically putting water on your paper and putting the water colour and make it move.

Holiday Blog

 Welcome Viewers to my blog,

Today I'm going to be talking about what I did over the holidays. It was very fun but felt like it only lasted for 3 days. I'm hoping that school will end quickly like the holidays. Term 4 has been great so far and I'm hoping we will do something fun this term. But anyways lets get into it. 

During the holidays I mostly played video games with my friends. I would grind for hours at a time until I get bored. Which I would watch a movie or some anime. We would grind until we got lots of wins or until we got to max level. 

Over the holidays I haven't really done anything physical but I have played games like hide n seek and tag. Tag requires lots of running and hide n seek only takes a bit of running and strategy to find the best hiding spot. I would mostly win hide n seek because I would find the best spots. Tag is another game I'm good at because I can run pretty fast and I'm really good at doge people. 

I haven't really learned much things over the holiday but I have learnt countless strategy to winning games and stuff. Hide n seek requires a little bit of thinking because you have to think of a good spot or find one. Some video games also requires some thinking like League of Legends or Clash of Clans. You have to think of a strategy like which path to take in League for the best chance of you winning. Or attacking other bases in Clash thinking of a way get a full 3 stars. Which is harder later game because you need a lot of strategy to just get a 2 star.

The things I like in the holidays were mostly watching anime or YouTube. Video games are my main source of entertainment so when I get bored I just watch random things I find on YouTube or finish an entire series. I also like playing with my friends all day and eating lots of McDonald to win a Monopoly prize.

The most emotional thing that happened in the holiday is ep6 of Squid Game. I cried after finishing the episode. It was one of the first shows to get me that emotional in a long time. There was 3 parts of the episode that made me cry. One of them was when the character Oh Il-nam died which broke me. Next Ali's dead then 240 died. I forgot her name but her death was one of the emotional one. 



I did a lot of stuff over the holiday, I've gotten better at video games a lot because I had a long holiday to practice some skills I couldn't do. I'm already natural gifted at playing video games so what ever game I play I can learn very fast and learn from my mistakes. Which always lead me to victory.

Back to School

 Welcome Viewers to my blog,

Today I'm going to be sharing with you my experience with going back to school. Now going back to school is tiring because I have to wake up at 7 in the morning and I hate waking up early. Then I take a shower and get ready for school. Overall going back to school hasn't been that bad. But sports have been a little boring. We can still do normal sports but not with the sports teacher. Which lead to some confusion with the rules.

The Empty Pot

 Welcome Viewers to my blog,

This is a folktale about a boy who lived in China. The emperor wanted a successor to be the Emperor. So all the children in the country went to his Palace and got flower seeds. Each one had to plant the seeds and grow a lovely flower. The Emperor loved flowers so that's why the Children had to plant flower seeds. Ping tried to grow the flower seed for months and changed the soil and a new pot for it. But it didn't grow. Every kid brought their Flowers to the Emperor's Palace. The Emperor looked at the flowers one by one until it was Ping's turn. Ping told the Emperor the truth about the flower. He was the only one that was honest because all of the flower seeds were cooked. The other kids used different flower seeds and Ping was chosen to be the Emperor.

Scavenger Hunt

Welcome Viewers to my blog,

Today I'm going to be sharing with you my lockdown experience. There were some things that happened in lockdown when my parents started a business. This wasn't their first one as they made one in the Philippines which was very successful. 

Here is my lockdown experience

Lockdown hasn’t been that bad for me. Lockdown has been fun. Work has been easy so I got to finish them quickly but, I couldn’t finish it all because I found the work late. Overall, my mental well-being was great. As I got to play video games, bridge watch some shows. My physical well-being is also great because sometimes I got to play ping pong with my parents and sister.
