When I was creating this tree Practice I really didn’t know what to do at first but, then I looked at Alana’s and Tania’s drawing I had an idea to create a tree, like a normal tree. Something went wrong, my paint was really ugly i really didn’t like it, it was horrible. So, you know I started everything with an purple paper and start with red and orange background I was in rush i had like 20 min left and I didn't even know what to do but I made it. I did the orange and red background because its like the sunrise when Melinda woke up to school the first day and felt that stomachache. After painting all my background I went t do my normal “Tree” with grass on he bottom then start to do my brown and the with leaves the strong green, I did this normal because I think Melinda should get happier and get new friends. The strong part has began I drew my lightning yellow and then hitting the tree and the tree started to burn with the colors of dark, red, yellow and orange. After finishing this I think that it has to be more creative so, I drew some of grey clouds and showing some of the loneliness that Melinda has and because of the rainy day and this rainy day expressing it. Finally, I gave it to Mr. Heneghan and this drawing expressed a lot of emotions like happiness and kind of loneliness, but I really like it. In my opinion I think Melinda should get happier. In my conclusion I made this tree like I said because that´s how I expressed painting trees.

Watercolor Interpretation
Melinda a 9th grader girl was really confused when she picked “Tree” in Mr. Freeman’s class, she thought that it was going to be really easy. In this assignment she has to do a tree. She was asking really tough questions like “I’m going to do lots of trees in the year? or different types of drawing? “ Well, with this I felt the same way that Melinda felt about this tree. On Friday I walked into Mr. Heneghan’s class and I saw paper with watercolors and I thought we’re going to paint. In a while Mr. Heneghan talked to us the instructions and the assignment was to do a tree striking by a lightning.
