Tate, this is a masterpiece! The colors are bold and brilliant. The monarch seems to be in motion under a red-hot sunset and rainbow. This deserves to be framed for display.

A shoe! You put in a lot of detail. Even the background designs are interesting. Learning to walk in someone else's shoes means understanding what they think and how they feel. That's an important life lesson.

This is a great-looking giraffe. Since the project is "What do animals do?" I need a little help to answer the question. I like how you first painted the paper and then cut the shapes for your design. Your artwork inspires me.
