Art gallery

 Last week in art we were finally able to put together our finished paintings! We set up an art gallery in the classroom and walked around looking at the finished pieces, discussing what we liked about each one. We then stuck our own pieces in our books with the original for comparison and then wrote our own notes about what went well, what we had used and what we could improve. In art school this whole process is called a crit.
