Art painting piece

My Kaupapa for these individual different painting and layout, is identity. This first image is a cut piece from cardboard, and painted to show the 3D of my painting that are below. The second image is a painting of what I want to do in 3D but what you see in it is cold colours that I used to express the texture of what the colour is showing to create this human piece. The third image is also the repeated copy of the second image, but in warm colour, it creates a warm, messy and beautiful look and gives you a bright type of vibe. 

What is working? - What is working is that on the first image I used cold colour on the folded legs, and I used the warm colour on the upper part of the body. Everything tends to look good together, putting together a piece of cold and warm coloured pieces. 

What is not working? - The oval pieces, known as the hands and feet, I don't think would go together well when put together with the entire piece. 

What is my next step? -  To try think it out with the colour of the hands and feet, and also try workout the colour for the face/mask.

I want to add a bucket hat with dripping paint coming out of it to create colour effects on the mask with a bit of warm and cold colour, but then I feel like it would be too much on everything. Everything is coming together well so far though, I love how the colours mixed well together but making two colours show.

1.5 Formal Persuasive Essay - Joshua Iva

 In this essay we will discuss how mobile phone’s control people’s lives. Mobile phones are one of the worlds one thing that can control a person’s life, they can distract you from family and friends, they tend to build addiction in someone, they tend to cause accidents and injuries, etc. For every 100 hours you use by talking on your phone, you suddenly increase the possibility of brain cancer by as much as 5%. Phone addiction can provide resistance in social life. Phone addiction can lead to living life through phones.



Most people can’t survive one day without their phones, and that is a huge problem to people’s brains and relationships. People browse the web, text, call, watch videos, etc. almost every hour which doesn’t give them time to rest and they tend to forget to eat and drink. People can stay up overnight and not get any rest due to addiction on their phones and blue light conditions to the eyes of humans that can cause no sleep. An effective way to stop people from having huge addictions to their phones, is to do exactly nothing and to daydream about things that you wish to happen in your life. 

 



75% of people can’t resist staying away from their phones from a limit of 5 feet away, what they need to do is take time apart from their phones and make yourself feel useful and enjoy the world. People tend to rather spend time on their phones than spending time with their family and friends. 25% of the people can do this quite oftenly; they know when to have their phones and when to not. Some people may keep their phones with them just for an emergency or in need for an emergency, but that doesn’t answer a question of why they are addicted to their phones. To decrease the number of people who can’t keep distance from their phones, you need to know that it is simple to do this and finally make yourself useful and do some chores.

 



Usually, people take time to spend with family; parents tend to apply rules, most mainly they allow no phones for distraction. This is what causes anger and stress to arise in people, mainly Teenagers. Kids and Young adults, are most certainly the age limit who lose self control when not having phones with them or when taken away from them, they tend to complain in the middle of something, or they would be mad all throughout because they won’t have something they are addicted to. People are still young and they find it hard to learn how to lose addiction, mainly to phones, but it's still possible. This can help increase the time of rest during the night and can grow more time with loved ones. Having rules in your household for phones is manageable to decrease the amount of distraction to your brain and to yourself with social media. 



Many car accidents are due to cell phones. Phone addiction is considered a disability. Approximately 660,000 drivers attempt to use their phones while taking hold of the wheel. There are ways to prevent this from happening; putting your phones on silent, completely turning off your phone, putting your phone out of reach or to really know the law and know you shouldn’t be having them out. These are ways to prevent car accidents and injuries from happening. It is good to be safe, and you always gotta watch out for what may come your way, especially for whoever may be in the car with you, you got to keep clear on the road and let driving distract you from your phone. These all include some safety methods to try and let driving distract you from your phone, because it’s something to get a hold of and to know about when driving. Nearly 400,000 injuries occur each year from accidents caused by texting while driving, and it may scare a lot of people, to get a clear hold of everything, try to keep families, friends and others safe when driving.



Mobile phones control people’s lives, mobile phones can be seen in classrooms, they can be a helpful tool when in need for help such as calculators, notes and calendars, but they tend to lead to a distraction for themselves and other students. When students use their phones to enter social media, it can lose their learning towards their work in class. This can create disruptions in class, especially when teachers continuously tell students to put away their devices. Me (Joshua Iva) with such a beautiful heart, it's easy for me to recommend NOT TO USE YOUR PHONES IN CLASS WHEN TEACHERS SAY TO “PLEASE PUT AWAY”, thank you, yours sincerely ‘Joshua Iva.’

Music Composing

03/08/20

 What type of song are you composing?

The type of song I am composing is, playing on piano like a slow sad type of mellow, with some singing in it to explain the story.

You working alone or as a group why?

I am working alone because there are some parts where I want to do things by myself and there are something's that suit a solo player and it's so much easier doing solo for I can decide whether I like or not then I can change it.

Which part of the composition are you writing first?

I am writing my lyrics at the moment and figuring out if it suits the part of the piano melody.

What are you working on this week?

This week composition, I am working on to definitely finish the piano melody and the full piano piece, then I will be figuring out the singing tone seeing if it fits in with the piano, then maybe a little of bit of writing the lyrics.

What did I do this week for composing?

This week, I have been focusing on still having to add lyrics, lyrics that go with my theme I am talking about. My theme is talking about someone who ran away, and never turned back home, and the family who owns her started to feel mixed of depressed emotions. I am also focusing on figuring out my tone of voice I will be using to go with the piano sound and lyrics this week.
