Our favourite artist

We all have a favourite singer whose song we could listen to over and over and a favourite actor whose movie we simply cannot miss in the cinema. This week our bloggers are sharing their absolute favourites with you and what an amazing mixed bag we have!  - Krystle

Let's talk about artists... 
 
Hello Friends, 
 
An artist is to me someone who creates something, it could be anything from calligraphy to graphic design. Art is something that brings me joy, I love seeing what artists create with their talents and learning about the different arts under the artistry umbrella.  
 
Picking one artist is a hard task, with all the different arts and different artists it feels unfair to pick just one person. I decided to pick someone that I follow on Instagram, and I have chosen this person because I have met her in person.  
 
I’m excited to tell you that I have one of her pieces from a pop up at Westfield shopping Centre. This piece is a calligraphy piece from my all-time favourite movie The Lion King. It is beautiful and says Hakuna Matata. It sits on my bedside table, so I see it every morning, it’s a prize possession and super important to me.  
 
Let's get to it Cathy Sison is wonderfully talented in many different areas such as calligraphy, design, graphic design and so much more. She takes beautiful photos on her travels also. I’ve also learnt that she is an art director and is an educator (Shillington School of Graphic Design NYC) as well. 
 
When I met Cathy at the Westfield Pop Up, I first asked her to write my sister's name and then I loved it so much that I lined up again to get Hakuna Matata. I think it was a magical moment for many people who were able to get meaningful words written so beautifully. That day Cathy gave her time and each of us got our beautiful pieces for free. I’m extremely grateful to Cathy for that day. 
 
Cathy has worked with many brands, teaches at and works with the Shillington School of Design NYC as head of teaching, online lead teacher and teacher and content creator. There is so much more that could be said but I'm not here to write a book. (Ha Ha). 
 
Her website is www.cathysison.com for anyone who wants to have a look and her Instagram for her Calligraphy kyashi_writes and I hope that you do go have a look because it is well worth it.  
 
Fun fact from Cathy’s website; Kyashi means Cathy in Japanese.  

Be creative, be kind and give yourself space to grow and learn, my friends.  – Your friend,  
Shan. 
 
 
Hello readers, welcome back mate. Today’s blog is about my favourite artists.
 
My favourite is someone in a video game called Fortnite and GTA5.  I love watching them play games on YouTube, they are funny, and they make people laugh and they have a lot of followers. I spend my spare time watching these videos. I have the most fun of my life when watching them. My favourite YouTuber is called Jelly and his friend Crainer and Slogo.
 
My favourite acting character is Deadpool and the man who acts him is Ryan Reynolds.  It is all about the killer but he never dies.  Wolverine and him are both in two movies together.
 
My favourite song is "Who let the dogs out" by Baha Men.  It is a good song I like it, I listen to it all the time.  – TJ
 
 
Dear readers this week the topic is “Who is your favourite artist”.
I have a conundrum. I don’t where to start my blog topic but I have to start somewhere.
 
Let me start by telling you about my favourite rapper Eminem. Here are some interesting facts about Eminem…
 
His full name is Marshall Bruce Mathers the third. 

He is 1.73 m tall and he is 51 years old and I like the way he tells you about how he grew up in his music and the way he tells his story about his life is so different from other artists. His movie called 8 Mile is a good movie in my opinion and I love one of the songs called Lose Yourself.
 
I hope he does a concert in Melbourne one day because he has done concerts before in the past but I've never been to one of his concerts.
 
Who’s your favourite artist or actor?

Hi readers today’s topic is favourite song artists, singers or actors and I have chosen to write my blog about Abba.  

Abba are from Sweden and their name comes from their initials, Agnetha, Bjorn, Benny and Annafrid.  

They were formed in 1972 and in 1973 they recorded Ring Ring for a festival. They came third.
They are one of the most successful groups ever, and in 1974 won Eurovision with Waterloo.
 
Australia helped Abba become so famous by being on Countdown with Molly Meldrum.

Thirty years later, one of their biggest hits Dancing Queen was put in the Grammy’s Hall of Fame. And then the following year in 2016 there was a special concert made with their avatars.

Mamma Mia the musical was recorded and turned into a movie.

Ring Ring, Waterloo, Honey Honey, I do I do, SOS are some of my favourites. The Winner Takes It All is one of the most meaningful songs as it talks about the painful separation of the members.

On Tuesday night a few weeks ago at dinner with friends I recently performed an Abba song with one of my closest friend Millie who supported me.  I felt confident with her by my side.

Do you have a favourite Abba member and do you have a favourite song and why?

Thank you for reading my blog your lovely friend Bethany.
 
 
Welcome back to our blog, today we are writing about artists in general and I chose to blog about a character Entropy Zero 2 Aidan Walker is his name.
 
Aidan was a prison guard before the 7-hour war. Bad things happened to him before the war. There was a terrible tragedy and this meant he was falsely accused and went to prison. Since the Combine came in and won the war, he had a choice to be a normal civilian or work with the Combine as a civil protection unit. I'm talking about the second game so I will not talk about the first one.
 
So he was in a civil protection unit and he stopped a big rebel attack in city 10 and then he got promoted to an OTA ELITE, which is an "Overwatch elite soldier". But he's not like the normal OTA's. Most of the soldiers have memory wipes and no freewill therefore they are slaves and they can't think for themselves. They are also half-human-half-machine. The Combine alien race has put the machines in the memory of humans.
 
Aidan Walker AKA 3650 has the machines inside of him but he has his memories and his freewill. This is what makes him a privileged unit. He continued working for the Combine to find his daughter. They promised him to find his daughter but they were using him as a puppet and cloning him. At the end of the game there are two endings. I picked the good ending and went rogue and joined the resistance.
 
I really like gaming and this character is one my favourites because he is a good guy, he is misunderstood and a cool Combine assassin.
 
Thanks for listening and stay safe. – Ryan
