I never knew where they actually came from I just thought they were like any other sea animal that has a shell. The texture a mussel is smooth, but the texture of a group of mussels is sharp, bumpy and a bit smooth. Just looking at them makes my skin crawl sometimes, but they're nice to eat. ]]> 2023-04-02 20:18:16 UTC https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541333706 Keketso230664601 https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541336300 I like this photo very much because of the colours and how the texture makes the surface of the wall looks. The surface is soft and fragile showing that the wall or the paint have been there for quite sometime.]]> 2023-04-02 20:24:29 UTC https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541336300 Keketso230664601 https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541353476 The Red Algae caught my attention because of its warm and vibrant pigment. From a far it looked like the ends of its leaves are sharpy and it looked quite hard but once you get to touch it is soft and almost feels like rubber yet it is wet. I know that it is extremely useful for nourishing and hydrating dry skin.]]> 2023-04-02 20:59:58 UTC https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541353476 Keketso230664601 https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541360278 A photo of a rock at the beach. Shows the different tones created by the sunlight that also indicate the texture of the rock. Its curves, lines and irregular shapes are blunt and rough. The sand makes the rock feel smooth although it is cold and has bumps.]]> 2023-04-02 21:15:18 UTC https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541360278 Keketso230664601 https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541364341 Who doesn't like broccoli? It's like most horrible green veggie most kids will eat. The texture of broccoli is soft, squishy and messy. I found it interesting because I never really focused on its texture and what's on the inside. I have always seen it as a vegetable that was not to be eaten since I did not enjoy eating it as a child but it is good for the body.

I was fascinated by the different colours and types of rock on this rock. These types of rocks usually have seashells on them or grow mussels. The texture is slippery when wet, bumpy and hard.]]> 2023-04-02 21:33:26 UTC https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541367892 Keketso230664601 https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541369492 This is a painting I made but this is only a part of it. I used sand because I love using mixed media or natural materials to create artwork. The sand makes a smooth yet hard and rough texture when mixed with paint. ]]> 2023-04-02 21:37:31 UTC https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541369492 Keketso230664601 https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541371972 An unending pattern of lines vertically or horizontally. The texture is smooth though there a bit of scratches and marks on the surface. I chose it because of the different lines it created.]]> 2023-04-02 21:43:36 UTC https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541371972 Keketso230664601 https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541373298 I took this picture because it reminded me of how an elephants skin looks like. The different patterns and shapes of the rubber caught my attention the most. The texture is smooth but you can still feel the bumps of the shapes and patterns.]]> 2023-04-02 21:47:00 UTC https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541373298 Keketso230664601 https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541376693 This comes from one of my works. The texture of the coins is slippery and hard as for the pastel part, it is soft but is easy to stain. This in a way expresses my love for using mixed media.]]> 2023-04-02 21:55:28 UTC https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2541376693 Keketso230664601 https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2547130591 My name is Keketso but most people call me Keke. I'm just an average person trying to live my life. I don't really talk a lot, I prefer listening to others talk if not then I like listening to music or just enjoying the atmosphere I am in. I love art and making it and I also like singing though I still struggle with some things. Favourite colours are earth colours but I mostly like green. I help where I can sometimes but tend to shy away in certain situations because of the attention and pressure that is put on me. There's not really much I can say, and I don't really know what to say about myself, but I guess this is all until further notice.]]> 2023-04-07 11:25:36 UTC https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2547130591 Keketso230664601 https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2547249347 What is Tone?
Tone describes the quality of colour. It perceives whether a colour is warm or cold, bright or dull, light or dark, and pure or "dirty. Tone can also show a variety of effects such as the mood of an artwork or where the artist puts more emphasis in. The picture above shows 3 designs of positive and negative shapes. Shapes, patterns and things such as repetition also have a big impact on things that include tone.]]> 2023-04-07 15:29:03 UTC https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2547249347 Keketso230664601 https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2548061873 As we all know Vogue is a very well known platform for not only celebrities and so on but also for artists and creators left in the dark. My most favourite cover of all is the February 2022, rise of the African models cover. Though it has some faults that people may not agree to , I still think it was worth it. I think it plays a huge impact especially with not only Africans but the black community, because it shows that this is who we are, it shows that we accept our colour skin  and there’s nothing wrong with our  skin colour no matter how dark it is. ]]> 2023-04-09 17:29:14 UTC https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2548061873 Keketso230664601 https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2548067346 Beauty comes in different forms. I don’t think many people liked this cover because of the way the title of the cover and the cover itself. The background makes the ladies stand out more, they all are wearing blacks clothes and have similar hairstyle and their skin tones are dark. I think this cover was worth it because the tones of their skin and the message that is trying to be sent out. It is bold, powerful and it looks like the ladies are demanding to be looked at and understand why they are there. That believe it or not, black Africans can rise up, they can have similar hairstyles compared to other races, that being dark is also a skin tone and is quite normal and common for us. In other sources such as videos and pictures, many people comment that the tones of their skin are not like that and they should stop degrading who these models are, until,they realise that they might be getting the wrong idea about this. I personally love it.]]> 2023-04-09 17:47:47 UTC https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2548067346 Keketso230664601 https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2548096925 A mothers love is always warm, safe and nurturing. I like this cover because for me it shows a mother who is ready to nurture and care for her child. Unlike the Rise of African models magazine cover where the tones come out bold, strong and powerful, this one comes out as neutral with warmth, soft and light and peaceful. It’s lovely. ]]> 2023-04-09 19:20:55 UTC https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2548096925 Keketso230664601 https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2628062351 I chose this picture because of the exterior design of the building. The windows of the building are designed in geometric shapes (triangles that make a rectangle shape). The buildings design is mostly shows rectangular, triangular and square shapes.]]> 2023-06-20 10:39:23 UTC https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2628062351 Keketso230664601 https://padlet.com/Keketso230664601/ouu198jje7l5d92c/wish/2628066200 The warmth of the clouds that reflect the sun setting makes it beautiful as the blue sky makes the hues of yellow-orange pop out more.
