Reflections

• Samantha I'm most proud of the way I chose my
  words to describe the way I view Emily Carr's
  paintings also I believe I did a exceptionally
  good job with my partner in choosing the picture
  for each slide that matched what we felt about
  the artist.
• Laura Im most proud that we found pictures that
  we liked to put in our slide show. Also I liked
  the way this artist puts her paintings together.
