I'm Ricky.

0:00:030:00:04

I live in Bristol.

0:00:040:00:06

I work as an animator, which is lucky, cos I love art.

0:00:060:00:09

Goal!

0:00:090:00:10

I live for art. I even dream of art.

0:00:100:00:13

I draw,

0:00:130:00:14

I paint,

0:00:140:00:16

I make things. Nailed it!

0:00:160:00:17

-I hang out with my mates...

-Go, art!

0:00:200:00:22

..Gavin, Michelle, Rich, and Sarah.

0:00:220:00:25

-It's me!

-Most importantly, I make ninja moves.

0:00:250:00:29

Some people call me the...

0:00:290:00:30

Today, I'll show you how to make a "Perry" nice vase.

0:00:350:00:39

We get prickly with this cactus photo frame.

0:00:390:00:42

And there's a giant creature coming to life in the sand.

0:00:430:00:46

Because today, it's...

0:00:480:00:49

Yawn! It's a new day.

0:00:550:00:58

I'd better get my ninja on...

0:00:580:01:00

..and my clothes.

0:01:010:01:02

QUACKING Aw!

0:01:120:01:14

Ooh!

0:01:140:01:16

MOBILE RINGS

0:01:170:01:21

Hello, Ricky speaking.

0:01:210:01:22

'Hello, I work on a TV show called Who On Earth Are You?

0:01:220:01:26

'It's where we find ancestors of famous people off the telly.'

0:01:260:01:29

Famous people...off the telly.

0:01:290:01:32

'We're a bit short of famous people,

0:01:340:01:36

'so would you like to be on the show?'

0:01:360:01:38

(Typical.)

0:01:380:01:40

Er, yeah!

0:01:400:01:42

I think your show is relatively good.

0:01:420:01:44

Get it? "Relatively"?

0:01:440:01:46

'Mmm, I'm afraid I don't. We'll text you updates.'

0:01:460:01:49

Maybe I should do a bit of my own family research.

0:01:490:01:51

According to this family-tree website,

0:01:550:01:57

I come from a long line of ninjas!

0:01:570:01:59

I wonder which one's my great-great-grandfather.

0:01:590:02:02

There's a chef that cooked really quickly.

0:02:020:02:05

Cake Ninja - maybe it's him?

0:02:070:02:10

Cake is served!

0:02:100:02:12

CRASH!

0:02:120:02:14

'Not cool.'

0:02:150:02:17

He can't be my ancestor.

0:02:170:02:18

Wow! If I get to be on Who On Earth Are You?

0:02:200:02:22

I'll be able to find out about my ancestors

0:02:220:02:25

and maybe write a bestselling autobiography.

0:02:250:02:28

An artist that used autobiographical details

0:02:280:02:31

in their work is Grayson Perry.

0:02:310:02:33

He was known for making vases.

0:02:330:02:35

So, I'm going to make one of my own.

0:02:350:02:37

-All right, Ricky.

-Oh, hi, Grayson.

0:02:370:02:39

-Nice of you to turn up.

-Did you say "Turner"?

0:02:390:02:42

Yeah, I did win the Turner Prize in 2003.

0:02:420:02:46

-And you're looking smart.

-I know, I put my best dress on especially.

0:02:460:02:50

I do have a CBE award, you know, for services to contemporary art.

0:02:500:02:54

Here's some of my work now.

0:02:540:02:56

Wow, you'll be a Sir next, or should I say "Sir-ramic"?!

0:02:580:03:02

Yeah, stop with the jokes, Ricky! I'm...glazing over.

0:03:020:03:06

All right, I'll pop you back over here.

0:03:080:03:10

So, I've got myself just a normal party balloon

0:03:120:03:15

and I'm going to blow it up to about the size of a melon.

0:03:150:03:17

There we go. Tie that off.

0:03:200:03:21

I've got myself a snack tube.

0:03:230:03:25

Take the lid off and with a pen, and quite carefully,

0:03:250:03:29

I'm going to draw a circle

0:03:290:03:31

around the bottom of the balloon over the knot.

0:03:310:03:34

And at the top, too.

0:03:340:03:36

And these two circles need to be perfectly in line with each other.

0:03:360:03:41

I've got some newspaper and some glue mix here -

0:03:410:03:43

three parts glue, one part water - and I'm going to papier mache

0:03:430:03:46

around my balloon, leaving the two circles on the top

0:03:460:03:49

and the bottom empty.

0:03:490:03:50

If you find it tricky,

0:03:530:03:54

put a little bowl down to hold your balloon in place.

0:03:540:03:57

If you're doing this at home, you need to put newspaper down

0:04:000:04:03

to protect your surfaces, and you'll need to do several layers

0:04:030:04:05

to make sure it's nice and strong.

0:04:050:04:07

I'm making sure that my papier mache goes right up to my drawn circles,

0:04:090:04:13

up to the very edge.

0:04:130:04:14

Looking good. Now, I need that to dry.

0:04:190:04:22

There we go. Ninja skills!

0:04:230:04:26

Chop the end of the balloon off.

0:04:260:04:28

IT PARPS Great noise!

0:04:280:04:30

Slide in my snack tube, so it sticks out either end.

0:04:300:04:34

I'm going to hold it in place with some masking tape.

0:04:340:04:36

I'm using my same glue mix from earlier.

0:04:460:04:48

I'm going to cover in it in a layer of coloured paper.

0:04:480:04:51

And paper gives it a lovely texture.

0:04:530:04:55

While it's still wet, I'm going to add my autobiographical features.

0:04:590:05:03

Pictures of my friends and my life, just like Grayson Perry.

0:05:040:05:07

Some long strips of coloured paper to wrap around the top.

0:05:070:05:10

Just slide it underneath that silver bit.

0:05:100:05:12

I could wait for this to dry before I add some finer details,

0:05:120:05:16

but I'm going to use my ninja skills.

0:05:160:05:19

There you go, ninja skills!

0:05:190:05:22

And I've added some black pen detail.

0:05:220:05:24

An autobiographical vase in the style of Grayson Perry.

0:05:240:05:27

You don't have to make a vase like mine. Make it personal to you.

0:05:360:05:39

How about one with your favourite things?

0:05:410:05:43

Mine shows skateboards, pencils and pizza.

0:05:430:05:46

Or how about showing the family pet?

0:05:470:05:50

Hey, look! A dog! Woof!

0:05:500:05:51

Right! Back to the family tree.

0:05:530:05:55

But which one's my great-great-granddad?

0:05:570:06:00

How about this fella?

0:06:000:06:02

He was a surgeon that dressed wounds super fast.

0:06:030:06:07

Maybe it was him?

0:06:070:06:09

Oh, ow!

0:06:090:06:11

Really not cool!

0:06:140:06:15

I've always had my ninja skills, even as a baby.

0:06:170:06:20

TEXT ALERT

0:06:200:06:22

Hey, it's a text from Who On Earth Are You?

0:06:220:06:25

They've found something interesting about my family tree.

0:06:250:06:28

Oh, but they haven't said what it is.

0:06:280:06:30

Anyway, I prefer cacti to trees.

0:06:300:06:33

I know, that gives me an idea to make...

0:06:330:06:36

the Art Ninja cactus photo frame.

0:06:360:06:39

So, I'm going to need some pictures from a photo album.

0:06:400:06:42

Me, my dad and mum. And a nice big bit of card.

0:06:420:06:45

And I'm going to dot around my pictures as a guide.

0:06:460:06:49

I positioned my pictures and I'm putting a dot at each corner.

0:06:510:06:54

Now using a ruler, I'm connecting the dots.

0:06:550:06:58

I'm going to go round on the inside

0:06:580:07:00

and draw another box about half a centimetre smaller,

0:07:000:07:03

because that's the bit that's going to hold them in place.

0:07:030:07:05

Now, using the frames that I've drawn as a guide,

0:07:060:07:09

I'm going to sketch out my cactus shape.

0:07:090:07:11

I want a big border around them, like that.

0:07:110:07:14

Remember, cacti come in all shapes and sizes,

0:07:160:07:18

so you can do yours any shape that you like.

0:07:180:07:20

Right, get that cut out.

0:07:210:07:23

Now, you might find it tricky,

0:07:230:07:25

cutting out this large shape on the cardboard.

0:07:250:07:27

If so, just get someone to help you.

0:07:270:07:29

And don't worry about it looking scruffy,

0:07:290:07:31

because you're going to papier mache it later.

0:07:310:07:33

There we go. Don't need these bits.

0:07:330:07:35

And I need to cut out these smaller rectangles here.

0:07:350:07:38

To get into them, I'm going to put a bit of modelling clay underneath

0:07:380:07:41

and poke through with a pencil.

0:07:410:07:42

Now I can slide in my scissors and cut that out.

0:07:420:07:44

There we go. Now, to give my cactus a bit more shape,

0:07:480:07:51

I'm going to add some newspaper to really puff it up.

0:07:510:07:53

I'm just going to scrunch it up and hold this in place

0:07:530:07:55

with a bit of masking tape.

0:07:550:07:57

I'm going to wrap the newspaper, just under and in on itself,

0:07:570:08:00

to give it a nice rounded shape.

0:08:000:08:02

Now I'm going to do some papier mache but with a difference.

0:08:040:08:06

I'm going to be using some kitchen towel

0:08:060:08:08

and I've got some glue and water mix.

0:08:080:08:10

Two parts glue, one part water.

0:08:100:08:11

And the great thing about kitchen towel is it means

0:08:110:08:14

I don't have to do a base coat of white, and especially for this,

0:08:140:08:17

it gives it a lovely texture.

0:08:170:08:19

Now, this is pretty messy.

0:08:210:08:23

So, if you're doing it at home, make sure you put some newspaper down.

0:08:230:08:26

Now, I need that to dry and to give it some colour

0:08:260:08:28

but I'm going to use my ninja skills.

0:08:280:08:31

Check it out. Lovely green on this side,

0:08:320:08:34

slightly darker on the back, just to tidy it up,

0:08:340:08:36

I'm going to add some extra detail by fading the two colours in.

0:08:360:08:39

So, start with a bit of the dark paint.

0:08:390:08:42

And I'm going to mix in a little bit of the lighter stuff.

0:08:420:08:44

Now, fading these two colours into each other,

0:08:440:08:47

makes it look more 3D and gives it a lovely finish.

0:08:470:08:49

Right, I'm going to put that to one side now.

0:08:520:08:55

I've made a back for my photo, using a piece of card.

0:08:550:08:58

And this little lip here will stop the picture from sliding around

0:08:580:09:03

and falling out when it's put into our frame.

0:09:030:09:05

I'm also using these cardboard lips to attach the frames

0:09:070:09:09

to the back of the canvas with double-sided sticky tape.

0:09:090:09:12

First one.

0:09:150:09:16

There you go.

0:09:170:09:18

It's nearly ready for photographs

0:09:180:09:20

but I'm going to add some finishing touches

0:09:200:09:22

and for that, I've used an egg box.

0:09:220:09:24

And I've used the bottom bits that hold the eggs to make flowers,

0:09:240:09:27

which I've painted and outlined in black pen.

0:09:270:09:30

These triangle bits here become some nice spikes.

0:09:340:09:37

And I'm just sticking these on with a bit of double-sided sticky tape.

0:09:370:09:40

Now it's time to add my photographs.

0:09:410:09:43

They slide nicely into our little pockets.

0:09:430:09:46

Dad's there. There you go, Mum.

0:09:470:09:48

Now I'm going to add a stand, so I can display it.

0:09:500:09:52

For that, I've got a strip of card that I've painted green,

0:09:520:09:54

a little bit of double-sided sticky tape, and the top bit

0:09:540:09:57

just leans against where the top sleeve is.

0:09:570:09:59

There we go.

0:09:590:10:00

You don't have to make a family cactus.

0:10:050:10:08

These egg box bugs look blooming great!

0:10:080:10:10

Or you can branch out with a blossoming tree.

0:10:120:10:14

Crumbs! Did that picture move?

0:10:200:10:22

I think it did. That's because it's animated.

0:10:220:10:25

What's Anna doing?

0:10:300:10:31

Hello, what are you up to?

0:10:350:10:37

Just leaving this bag of clothes for the charity shop.

0:10:370:10:39

-Are you sure that's just clothes?

-Yeah.

0:10:430:10:46

GRUNTING

0:10:500:10:53

Whoa! Better call the fashion police!

0:10:540:10:57

Nah! It's just an animation.

0:10:570:10:59

Now, to make this trendy animation, you'll need a load of old clothes

0:10:590:11:02

and a tablet with an animation app installed.

0:11:020:11:05

And you can put it together in just three ninja moves.

0:11:050:11:08

Ninja move number one.

0:11:080:11:10

Pick out some old clothes and put together some outfits

0:11:100:11:12

to make your characters.

0:11:120:11:14

# Vogue!

0:11:140:11:17

# Vogue

0:11:170:11:19

# Go with the flow

0:11:190:11:21

# Ooh, you've got to... #

0:11:210:11:25

But you don't actually have to put the outfits on.

0:11:280:11:31

< Aw!

0:11:310:11:33

Ninja move number two.

0:11:330:11:34

Now, lay your clothes down on the floor and set up your shot.

0:11:340:11:37

If you like, you can use a mini fish-eye lens,

0:11:370:11:38

just to help you get more of the action into your field of view.

0:11:380:11:41

Now is a good time to plan what your animation's going to be.

0:11:410:11:44

So, get those creative juices flowing.

0:11:440:11:46

Ninja move number three.

0:11:460:11:48

It's time to start shooting.

0:11:480:11:50

Now, remember, the distance you move your clothes

0:11:500:11:52

will affect how smooth the animation is.

0:11:520:11:54

So, we're just moving them a tiny amount, and each time we move them,

0:11:540:11:57

we take a frame.

0:11:570:11:58

OK, we've shot all of our frames, I think it's time to take a look

0:11:590:12:02

at our mini masterpiece!

0:12:020:12:03

GRUNTING

0:12:080:12:10

Oh, I'm really happy with that!

0:12:110:12:13

-What do you reckon, Rich?

-I'll take my hat off to that.

0:12:130:12:16

Nice.

0:12:160:12:18

-Nice outfits!

-Thanks.

0:12:180:12:21

PHONE RINGS

0:12:250:12:28

'Hi, Ricky, it's your mum.

0:12:280:12:30

'I've been doing some research into jeans.'

0:12:300:12:32

Wow! Everyone's at it!

0:12:320:12:34

'I prefer the stone-washed jeans myself

0:12:340:12:36

-'but they're not fashionable any more.'

-Oh, wrong genes.

0:12:360:12:39

'So, I bought myself some super-skinny purple ones instead

0:12:390:12:43

'and here's what you've got to squeeze into today.'

0:12:430:12:45

"Oil" be impressed when you make some fruity art.

0:12:470:12:49

Whoa!

0:12:500:12:51

This guy's off to a flyer with his origami Frisbee.

0:12:510:12:55

And there's epic sand art, that's totally beachy.

0:12:550:12:58

'Right, I've got to go and squeeze myself into my new trousers.

0:12:580:13:02

'Those skinny jeans won't wear themselves!

0:13:020:13:05

-'Bye!'

-Ricky, Ricky, Ricky!

0:13:050:13:06

-What can I help you with?

-Ricky, can you make art with a mirror?

0:13:080:13:11

-I can't see myself doing that, not today.

-Aw!

0:13:110:13:16

-BOTH:

-Hi, Ricky.

-Hey, it's Sam and Mark.

0:13:160:13:18

No wind-ups, all right?

0:13:180:13:20

We just wondered if you could make something out of these eggs.

0:13:200:13:23

Here, catch.

0:13:230:13:24

Oh! I knew it was a rubber egg.

0:13:250:13:28

Anyway, I can't make anything with this,

0:13:280:13:30

you having a laugh?

0:13:300:13:31

Erm, yeah, that's kind of what we do.

0:13:310:13:33

Fair enough.

0:13:330:13:34

-BOTH:

-Ricky!

0:13:360:13:37

What have these guys got?

0:13:370:13:39

Ricky, can you make art with this oil?

0:13:390:13:42

OK. I choose you!

0:13:420:13:44

-BOTH:

-Yay!

0:13:440:13:48

-What are your names?

-I am Emily.

-And I am Lillian.

0:13:480:13:53

-Nice to meet you, guys, and where are you from?

-Wales.

0:13:530:13:55

Oh, lovely. I'm going to grab a few more things, I'll be right back.

0:13:550:14:00

Right, guys, I've got a piece of paper,

0:14:000:14:02

a couple of bowls, some cotton buds

0:14:020:14:04

and a little bit of kitchen towel.

0:14:040:14:06

Over there. And I've also got some colouring pencils and a pen,

0:14:060:14:10

cos I'm going to do a still life of this bowl of fruit.

0:14:100:14:13

So, I'm going to start by drawing a sketchy line drawing of the bowl.

0:14:140:14:18

-So, do you guys like to do art? BOTH:

-Yeah.

0:14:180:14:21

-What kind of things do you do?

-I drew a wolf once.

0:14:210:14:24

A wolf is my favourite animal.

0:14:240:14:26

When you're drawing still life,

0:14:280:14:29

it's always important to look more at your subject

0:14:290:14:31

than you do at your paper. It's all about studying it.

0:14:310:14:34

Now, I'm using pen to do my sketch and you'll find out why later.

0:14:360:14:40

OK, do you want to see how the sketch is looking so far?

0:14:400:14:42

-BOTH:

-Yes, please.

0:14:420:14:44

Here you go.

0:14:440:14:47

-BOTH:

-Whoa!

0:14:470:14:49

You think it looks good now, well,

0:14:490:14:50

it's going to look even better when I've added some colour.

0:14:500:14:53

-That is art.

-Thanks, guys.

0:14:530:14:55

These are just normal colouring pencils.

0:14:550:14:57

I'm just going to scruffily add some colour.

0:14:570:14:59

What fruit shall I do next?

0:14:590:15:01

-Orange!

-Grapes!

-Orange!

-Grapes!

0:15:010:15:04

-Why don't I try and do both?

-Yeah!

-Yeah!

0:15:040:15:07

Double-handed colouring, risky!

0:15:080:15:11

Starting with the lighter colour on the orange,

0:15:110:15:13

and I'm just giving the bottom parts of the grapes

0:15:130:15:15

a little bit of shadow there, and I'm going to come back

0:15:150:15:18

with a lighter one on that one. OK, I'm going back to one-handed.

0:15:180:15:22

Going to add some darker orange and I'm just really sketchily doing it,

0:15:220:15:25

because I've got a trick up my sleeve with that oil.

0:15:250:15:28

So, I'm adding a lot of different colours

0:15:290:15:32

that you wouldn't think you'd find on here but if you look closely,

0:15:320:15:35

there are little bits of blue and purple on parts of the pineapple.

0:15:350:15:39

It's surprising what colours are hiding in there.

0:15:390:15:41

It looks so arty, and cool!

0:15:410:15:45

I'm really hoping it's going to be pretty cool.

0:15:450:15:47

So, now, I've coloured in my picture with pencils,

0:15:470:15:50

it's time to use the oil.

0:15:500:15:51

This oil is not for babies today.

0:15:520:15:54

I'm going to use little cotton buds, I'm going to dip it in the oil.

0:15:560:16:00

Get the excess oil off and I'm going to start

0:16:000:16:03

fading in and blending in the colours.

0:16:030:16:05

But all the separate sketchy colours are now blending in

0:16:050:16:08

all nice and smooth, giving it a lovely paint effect.

0:16:080:16:11

And when I'm changing colours,

0:16:140:16:16

I'm using either the other end of the cotton bud

0:16:160:16:19

or a new cotton bud, so you don't smudge the colours together

0:16:190:16:22

and the reason I used a permanent pen earlier

0:16:220:16:24

is because the oil doesn't make the ink run.

0:16:240:16:26

So, I'm making my way down the pineapple now.

0:16:270:16:30

And all the other colours you wouldn't expect to see there

0:16:300:16:33

are blending in nicely to create shadows and some highlights.

0:16:330:16:37

And now, I'm just finishing up by just blending in the bowl.

0:16:390:16:43

OK, girls, are you ready to see it?

0:16:430:16:46

-BOTH:

-Yes!

0:16:460:16:47

What do you make of this?

0:16:470:16:49

-It's really cool!

-Ah, yeah.

0:16:500:16:54

You know what, I'm so happy with it, I think it deserves a frame.

0:16:540:16:57

So, what would you guys give it out of ten?

0:16:570:17:00

-BOTH:

-We give it a special ten!

0:17:000:17:04

Oh, like a bunch of grapes.

0:17:040:17:06

I "vitamin C" what you did there!

0:17:060:17:08

Thanks for your suggestion, guys, you've been awesome. Bye-bye!

0:17:080:17:11

-BOTH:

-Bye, Ricky!

0:17:110:17:13

Here's a quick art tip, how to draw a pirate ship.

0:17:230:17:26

So, I'm going to start with the water line.

0:17:260:17:29

That's just joined-up curves.

0:17:290:17:32

I'm going to draw the hull of the ship,

0:17:320:17:34

so it's going to have a curve at the front, a rectangle that juts out -

0:17:340:17:38

that's going to be the bow.

0:17:380:17:39

Down here to make the deck and then a rectangle

0:17:390:17:43

that sticks out of the back and a similar curve for the stern.

0:17:430:17:46

Now, I need some cannon holes.

0:17:460:17:48

It's a pirate ship having lots of sea battles.

0:17:480:17:51

Just a couple of detail lines here because the ship is made out of wood

0:17:550:18:00

and these will be the planks.

0:18:000:18:02

Now, some nice big sails push it along.

0:18:020:18:04

I'm going to angle them like this like they're catching the wind.

0:18:040:18:06

I'm going to draw these two masts.

0:18:130:18:15

Connecting up my sails.

0:18:150:18:16

And, at the very top, these little flags, as well.

0:18:190:18:21

It wouldn't be a pirate ship without a skull and crossbones.

0:18:250:18:28

There we go. Another quick art tip.

0:18:360:18:38

QUACKING

0:18:450:18:48

Argh!

0:18:520:18:53

Oh! TEXT ALERT

0:18:570:18:59

It's that researcher from the Who On Earth Are You? show.

0:18:590:19:02

He says my great grandfather could be a notorious ninja pirate.

0:19:020:19:08

Argh!

0:19:150:19:16

That's more like it! I can see myself as a pirate.

0:19:160:19:20

Now I can LITERALLY see myself as a pirate!

0:19:200:19:23

Om!

0:19:230:19:25

-Om... Ooh!

-CRASHING

0:19:260:19:29

Greetings, ninja pirate dude.

0:19:300:19:33

It's the Grand Master, ancestor of all ninjas.

0:19:330:19:38

Step number 1066 to enlightenment!

0:19:380:19:45

Flying object of many thoughts.

0:19:450:19:48

Origami Frisbee!

0:19:490:19:51

Yeah.

0:19:510:19:52

Get yourself some memo notes.

0:19:520:19:55

Take one and fold it, like this.

0:19:550:19:58

Corner-to-corner, into a triangle.

0:19:580:20:01

Bottom point up to the top corner.

0:20:010:20:04

Make three more of this colour, dude.

0:20:060:20:08

Grab some different colour memo notes.

0:20:090:20:11

Pink! Fold four of these the same way.

0:20:120:20:16

You need eight to make a circle, dude.

0:20:190:20:22

Take one of each colour.

0:20:230:20:26

Put the big point of one inside the small opening of the other.

0:20:260:20:30

Repeat with all of them.

0:20:320:20:34

Alternating the colours until you have a circle.

0:20:340:20:37

Make it stronger with pieces of sticky tape.

0:20:390:20:42

Kerblammo!

0:20:420:20:43

A flying object of many folds.

0:20:460:20:50

Lesson number 1066, complete.

0:20:500:20:54

Wow! Nice one, Grand Master.

0:20:540:20:56

I am enlightened.

0:20:560:20:58

You are most welcome.

0:20:580:21:00

Such big ideas for a man of such small stature.

0:21:040:21:07

Om!

0:21:100:21:11

If my great grandad was a pirate,

0:21:140:21:16

maybe I can make some sea-worthy art.

0:21:160:21:18

I might have to ditch this hat, though.

0:21:200:21:22

-PHONE RINGS

-Hi, Ricky.

0:21:260:21:29

Ahoy, me hearty!

0:21:290:21:30

Or should I say, "me arty"!

0:21:300:21:34

Meet me at the beach for some art to treasure!

0:21:340:21:38

Aye-aye, it's Sarah!

0:21:580:21:59

Ninja skills!

0:22:040:22:05

-Hey, Sarah. Can I come under?

-Yeah, it's a bit soggy.

-Yeah.

0:22:050:22:09

Why are you wearing an eye patch?

0:22:090:22:10

Because I've got pirate ancestors, which makes me the Arrrr Ninja.

0:22:100:22:15

Which means I get a parrot.

0:22:150:22:17

Check it out. "Polly want a cracker?

0:22:170:22:19

"Oh, shiver me timbers!

0:22:190:22:22

"Pieces of eight."

0:22:220:22:24

Pieces of skate, more like!

0:22:240:22:26

You're the first skateboarding pirate ninja.

0:22:260:22:28

Oh, thanks. Oh, Polly!

0:22:280:22:29

Oh, Polly...

0:22:290:22:31

Anyway, the reason I've brought you here

0:22:310:22:33

is to make some really epic seafaring art.

0:22:330:22:35

Like, it's going to be quite hard graft,

0:22:350:22:36

-so we're going to need a lot of muscle.

-It's all right.

0:22:360:22:39

I've got a load of mussel, like, I've got a mussel here,

0:22:390:22:41

got mussel there, a whole bucket of mussels.

0:22:410:22:43

Oh, give me strength. It's the sort of thing Gavin would say!

0:22:430:22:45

All right, well, look, before we get our ninja on,

0:22:450:22:48

can you put some sun cream on my nose?

0:22:480:22:50

-Really?

-Yeah. I burn really easily.

0:22:500:22:53

Please!

0:22:540:22:55

Well, let's get our ninja on.

0:22:560:22:58

Art Ninja!

0:23:050:23:06

-Strike a pose.

-Art Ninja!

0:23:080:23:09

Yeah!

0:23:120:23:13

My great-great-great grandfather, he had the sea legs.

0:23:160:23:19

But a pirate's life is not for me. I'm going to bail.

0:23:210:23:24

Well, come on, Sarah.

0:23:280:23:30

Hey, Tom, me old, salty sea dog.

0:23:340:23:37

-Hey, Ricky.

-You all right?

-Yeah, great.

0:23:370:23:39

You up for helping us make some epic sand art?

0:23:390:23:41

-Definitely. Let's do it.

-Awesome.

0:23:410:23:43

But, first, I've got a gag from one of my old ancestors.

0:23:430:23:47

Oh, yeah?

0:23:470:23:48

What happened when the sea weed?

0:23:480:23:52

Look, let's not rake out old jokes. Grab that and get to work.

0:23:520:23:57

OK, Tom, so what are we up to here?

0:23:590:24:01

OK, Ricky, so we're right at the top of our drawing at the moment

0:24:010:24:03

and this is just a tiny part of it.

0:24:030:24:05

-It's massive, isn't it?

-It's really big.

0:24:050:24:07

So, if you want to start here, Ricky,

0:24:070:24:09

and Sarah, if you start over there.

0:24:090:24:11

So, we're just doing the outline now,

0:24:170:24:19

it doesn't look like much, though.

0:24:190:24:20

Well, it doesn't look like much now,

0:24:200:24:22

but once you stand up on the promenade over there,

0:24:220:24:24

you'll be able to see when it's all finished.

0:24:240:24:26

Ricky, I'd like to say it's coming together

0:24:380:24:40

but I don't know what it's supposed to be.

0:24:400:24:42

Let's just say, this picture's going to be pretty crackin'!

0:24:420:24:45

You see this? This is a pro rake.

0:24:570:25:01

This part's for doing the main lines, and this is for the shading.

0:25:010:25:05

And for better coverage...

0:25:050:25:06

..it's got a trick up its sleeve. And if it looks dangerous,

0:25:080:25:12

it probably is.

0:25:120:25:13

Hi, Tom, what bit shall we do next?

0:25:260:25:28

So, at the moment, we're colouring in.

0:25:280:25:30

So, if we can find this mast here and shade that in with your rake,

0:25:300:25:33

-that'll be brilliant.

-Awesome.

0:25:330:25:35

Ricky, I still don't know what this is supposed to be.

0:25:450:25:48

Well, let me just add the last little finishing touches,

0:25:480:25:51

and you remember I said it was "cracking"?

0:25:510:25:53

Well, behold our giant, beautiful kraken!

0:25:530:25:57

Oh, that looks amazing!

0:26:090:26:11

I know, right? So, if you want to get a better view,

0:26:110:26:13

-why don't you look through this?

-OK.

0:26:130:26:16

HE LAUGHS

0:26:210:26:23

What? Have I got something on my face?

0:26:230:26:26

Just like my ancestors.

0:26:260:26:28

The old ones are the best.

0:26:280:26:30

ROARING

0:26:390:26:42

I may not have found any treasure but the art was priceless.

0:26:520:26:56

Today has taught me a valuable Art Ninja lesson.

0:26:560:27:00

When taking a look at your family tree,

0:27:000:27:02

watch out for surprises from under the sea.

0:27:020:27:05

It's time for some rest.

0:27:050:27:06

Oh, I've left my socks on.

0:27:100:27:12

SEAGULL CALLS

0:27:210:27:23

SHIP'S FOGHORN

0:27:230:27:27

'If this sand doesn't stop soon, I'm going to scream!'

0:27:270:27:30

Arrrrrrrgh!
