 | I enjoyed making my picture frame out of clay. It was fun and messywritten by Peyton2660 |  | The deer painting was nice. The eyes were hard to draw. The ears were hard too. I was the only person in my class who drew two deers. It was beautiful and I want to do it again. What I drew is a doe and a fawn. Also, I think I did a great job because I have seen an actual deer in real life and with the help of Mrs. Rutherford's deer photograph.written by Alexa877 |  | My painting shows a winter tree that has no leaves when it is snowing in the winter. I wish it could really snow because I could have fun in the cold, but it might cut my summer a little short. It has sprays of snow and I used a medum, large and small brush to make the tree and a small brush for some snow. It may look weird but that is what makes it look unique.written by Alexa877 |
