BA #6 - Stories from Pictures
Open the URL I have posted on your blog. Look at the picture. It is a famous painting from an American or European artist.
Examine the scene in the painting and write a short, creative story about what took place before the scene and what may happen after.
Don't forget to include a picture of the painting in your blog post as well as the URL for the painting.
Here are links to all the pictures. You can see all these paintings in real-life when you visit the Art Institute (artic.edu) in Chicago. It is one of the greatest art museums in the world!
