For this weeks artist, we were asked to summarise the information provided to us based on the artist, Tracey Moffatt, and research other information to include in the summary. We then had to gather four images of her artworks and write comments on them including, our thoughts, opinions and other general statements about the image. Another requirement of the two week task, was writing about what we personally thought our chosen series produced by Moffatt was about, and also including a short 200 word paragraph on what image we would add to the series and why. The last task was to create an artwork based on Tracey Moffatt’s style of art.

     Art, in each and every form that it comes in, shows us who we are. Our

The story is told through the perspective of Rachel, and the way she tells her story portrays a lot about her character. When the teacher told Rachel if the red sweater was her, she responded with “That’s not, I don’t, you’re not...Not mine.” (paragraph 10). This reveal that Rachel is a shy girl who probably doesn’t speak that often unless provoke. It also shows that Rachel can’t seem to finish what she’s saying. Another thing to take note of is how Rachel tells her story. She tells her story with simple vocabulary, and the way she describe her story makes it seem like it was actually written by a child of that

Throughout its long history, art has evolved from images splattered onto cave walls into brilliant paintings done by easily recognizable artists such as Pablo Picasso. Recently, contemporary artwork has been making its own name in the world of art by introducing many new techniques and styles of art. One of these artists is Elizabeth Huey. Huey has been one of many artists who have changed the style of artwork over the last few decades.

However, it is amazing to see how clean and symmetrical all the pieces of work are. It is almost hard to believe that someone made these with their own hands and not manufactured.
