Digital Art

Last Tuesday, in the first block we had our first Digital Art session. It was very enjoyable because we had to use canva to make something that had layers, birds, plants and all of those nice things and it was completely up to us on what it looked like and how we would lay it out. 

Here are the steps we had to take to make this creation:

The first steps: Open a new A4 project on Canva and decide on page layout: Portrait or landscape

Second steps: Decide a background colour

Third steps: Add a pattern for the background and make it bigger than the canvas size.

Forth steps: Choose 1-2 images from the Land/Whenua folder (optional), download and import onto Canva project.

Play around with the size, orientation, rotation, layering and transparency.

Fifth steps:Choose 2-4 images from the 

Flora Folder, download and import onto Canva project.

Play around with the size, orientation, rotation, layering and transparency for each payer/copy.

Sixth step: Choose 1-2 images from the 

Bird Folder, download and import onto Canva project.

Play around with the size, orientation, rotation, layering and transparency for each payer/copy.

Last step: Check to make sure all the layers are in an order you’re happy with!

After following all of those steps u should come up with something like mine!
