As we are learning about art this term, class one and five got the chance to create a Tapa cloth design, to those that don't know what a Tapa is here is a link/ Tapa designs . A Tapa design is bark cloths made in the island of the pacific ocean.
What you will need to make a Tapa design brown or white paper,red die, crayons and that's about it. The first thing that you need to do is draw your design on the paper, if you don't have any design ideas you can get some inspiration from the internet.
Anyways after you have finished drawing your pattern on the brown or white pieces of paper,you now need to colour it with your crayons, it is best to use brown, black and yellow crayons. Now that you have colored your Tapa designs. It is time to die it,when you die it just use the Technic that you use when you are painting, when you have finished wait a few minutes for your die to dry and there you go you made yourself a Tapa design.
