Skinks

There are 2 type of lizards that are native to New Zealand, Skinks and Geckos. Tuataras are native too, but they are not lizards.
                                                                   
Their habitats can be anywhere on the seashore, rocky areas, cold places and in the forest  and on the ground. We have to protect the area they live in because skinks are protected.
                                                   
Skinks have small eyes but can see really well. They have to blink so that their eyes can keep clean and moist.
                                                                  
Sinks are mainly carnivores. They eat insects, spiders and bugs. Sometimes they like to eat fruits from trees.
                                                                  
Skinks have predators like birds and Tuataras. They can run really first to escape their enemies. Skins lose their tail when they are escaping their predators but it grows back.
                                                                                                                                                                                                                           
I am glad that Sinks are protected so that they are in New Zealand for ever.

Fishing Boats at sea

The name of the painting I did was Fishing Boats At Sea. Painted by Van Gogh. He was a famous artist of a lot of painting.



I Think the thing that is the same between my painting and Van Gogh’s is the color of the boats. Green, red and white are the colors of the boats. He’s boats were really easy to do.  


My sea is really not like Van Gogh’s because it does not have the same mixture.
I did not use big and small brush strokes like Van Gogh’s painting. It was hard to do the sea so that it looked the same but it did not look the same. I attempted to do it just like Vincent Van Gogh. A lot of people were talking so loud..


Two things that are not the same are three boats that are bigger than they are supposed to be. They are the three boast in the corner of my painting that are not the same.
  
The message was him sad hurt and lonely. I think he is upset about
same thing that he is thinking about
