TAPA

Hello readers  today I have  been working on my tapa.
if you dont know what Tapa is,Tapa is  also known as siapo,tapa is one of the oldest Samoan cultural art forms. ... The canvas of Siapo is the bark of the Paper Mulberry Tree. This cloth is known as u'a. The process of preparing the u'a includes harvesting, stripping, separating, scraping and beating.



Today I did my tapa different to others.


1. My art teacher gave me a peace of paper with tapa drawing on it.
2. I used brown inc and water to brush the paper.
3. Then I leave it to dry.
4. Then the teacher said when it drys i can use chalk-ow  to draw patterns.
