"Negative, because I hear criticism and then think to be mean."

"Negative, because it is when someone talks bad about you."

"Negative, because it’s finding flaws in something that people do."

- Is my eye drawn to something in particular, how is this done? 

"The texture of the surface of the sand relates to the colours of the wall, and the butterflies are blending into the colour of the theme."

"I can tell it’s a sunny day from the shadows, the artist uses light to make it 3D"

"I can tell there’s a hole in the ground because of the dark. There are shadows behind the butterflies so I can tell it’s a sunny day."

"I can tell it’s a sunny day because there are shadows behind the butterflies. The shadows make it 3D."

"The texture of the image is very good the colours reflecting on the wall make it 3D, the space of the objects make them stand out and so does the way the colours collide."

“I definitely felt sympathy for the guy in white, and all the dead people on the floor. I think it was his face, the painter made him look innocent on his face, or maybe that’s the white too?”

“The girls all said surrender as one of their words, remember? That’s what the white is for. I felt totally sad looking at it before I even noticed the people on the ground, yeah his face.”

·        (Coco) “Exactly what *Polo* said, I loved writing the Newspapers on our own at home because it was just our imaginations, but then when it was a famous art piece it was great to talk to the girls and remember the right names and words and stuff together. My artist statement was so, so long before and then in the group it got shorter and better. I wouldn’t have been able to read that big long yolk.”

·        (Emo) “Working in groups was the best but what helped me the most I think was how you always asked questions, and then another one, to help us look at the right things or certain spots in the art and that. We all kind of asked each other those questions when helping each other then.”

·        (Nico) “I felt like a real celebrity or something then when the girls were all like and what were you trying to show?’ haha, but it really did help ‘cause sometimes you forget to include stuff. Always happens me in essays and that.”

·        (Grow) “It was having a set of words to help us and then all those questions you asked, we asked each other or read them out loud off the sheet, so we didn’t skip anything.”

(Snow) “Being able to ask the girls for help and having words, ideas and questions there to help you. And then you coming around and sitting with us Miss, that kind of made me feel like we weren’t doing it wrong ‘cause you were so nice, even if we said something stupid.” 

·        (Polo) “Yes, definitely Miss.”

·        (Coco) “We’re all friends in the class like, the whole year like, but I’m able to talk to some of the girls more easy than others. Me and *Polo* hang out outside of school all the time so I was able to tell her what I thought about her work no bother haha.”

·        (Emo) “Same as us, we do everything together, like everything Miss, so I trusted the girls to know what I was trying to get at and be able to help me without hurting my feelings or anything.”

·        (Grow) “Exactly, like I’d no problem telling *Emo* and *Snow* how to fix it without slagging them or anything.”

(Snow) “I would not have been able to do this project without the girls help, especially the writing stuff!”
