Meadows of Poplars by Claude Monet I hear the chirping of the birds in the distance. I smell the flowers in the field. I need to go out and explore these fields. I am going pick the flowers. I feel like the details took a long time. I want to keep going into these fields. Dear Sara, I am writing to you from Meadow with Poplars by Claude Monet. I have been here for a few days and I am in love with the scenery of where I am. The fields look endless as you look out and the flowers fill the fields with detail. Every morning there’s a woman who picks the flowers, and I wonder what she does with them when she returns home. The flowers are so small but they create such an amazing big detail to the scenery. Hope to see you soon! From, Riley John Wilson Self Portrait- John Wilson I hear the silence in my room.

During the painting bootcamp we developed a lot of new skills and used many artistic behaviors. One of the artistic behaviors that I explored was I created original art. I based my landscape painting about a picture that I took when I was out on rocks on the fourth of the July. Also I developed new skills. The last time I water colored I was in kindergarten and I just painted whatever without a purpose. I learned that you have to background, middle ground and foreground. I also learned the difference between acrylic and watercolor and the difference in the brushes. We also did reflections and we got to make critics on others paintings and got to get criticism from others on our paintings.
When making my painted landscape I used a picture of mine and I tried my best to paint it. The sky had a lot of colors so I used watercolor to blend all the colors easily with a lot of water. But I also used acrylic for the clouds. I also used an old skill that I learned earlier and I used ink to draw the foreground and make the houses. I enjoyed making a painting of my own picture and developing new skills. I developed my art skills when making the illuminated letters. We did learn a little history and expanded our global awareness during this lesson by learning about the Book of Kells. I took a risk when using the pens because I had to make sure I was aware of the amount of pressure I was applying on the pen, amount of pressure relays on the thickness of the line. I also included some things about myself that made this post so original. Overall this project helped our global awareness, helped us take risks, and helped us show things about ourselves to make it an original work of art.
