  2. My picture is one of a heart. I love pictures of hearts because they remind me of love. And love reminds me of my family and friends. When I see a picture of a heart that is what I think of and my family and friends inspire me. I love writing in the center. I come here after school for a program. They help me with my homework and I love everyone there. After we finish our homework we get to play. Nasma comes here too and we stay together. We get to play board games and have fun. My favorite thing at the center is winter wishes. Winter wishes is when they give the kids gifts. This year I asked for making my own pillows and shoes and jewelry. We did it over summer but I want to do it again. Nasma and I did it together.

  5. In this picture there is a girl with blond hair, sparkling blue eyes. She is waring a green orang and blue checked shirt and rolled up jeans and cowgirl boots. On her lap lies a beautiful black and tan dog. The girl is also touching a horse's black nose and mane. The Horse also has black eyes and halter and beige body. In the background there is a mountain covered with trees and the girl is sitting on a huge rock with rosemary around it and a pink sky. This picture inspires me because I really like animals and when I grow up I want to be a vet.

  8. I'm inspired by Frida Kahlo. She draws herself with a serious faces with her eyebrows connected in most of her paintings all the time. One of my favorite painting is the one when she has a purple dress on and she has a skinny neck. She has her eyes colored black and her lips are seen shut. To me She never has a smile on her face because I think she is sad. She makes me want to draw happy pictures, fun pictures because she look so sad in her pictures.

  9. There are two small hearts on the top of my paper with the letter T in the middle of my paper.The letter T is shaped as a bubble like the bubble letters.The colors that are in the bubble letter are yellow, pink, turquoise, and pink again. The letter T is not that big, it takes up a half and a little more of my page.The left over of my page is the color white.The drawing inspires me because it has some of my favorite colors on it and my favorite colors make me happy.

  10. When I went New Zealand a few years back,my family and I went to the Sea life aquarium . We saw lots of animals and exhibits . We had our pictures taken . Then we received a mini booklet that contained fun facts,pictures of ocean life , and our pictures . But these weren't normal pictures , these had awesome underwater backgrounds ,[one even had us on a boat ,that was being eaten by a shark ! ]This one is of my brother and I standing next to each other with our arms wrapped each other's shoulders . The water was sky blue . We were standing behind some bolders . There was odd looking coral and schools of fish . One school of fish was yellow , one green , and one red . The last one was a school of clown fish . This picture inspiers me to write a story about people who live under water . In this place , people live houses made out out of rocks and seaweed is a trademark food . I'll write about a girl and her life underwater . The End .

  11. The ballerina in the picture dances for the New York City Ballet. And she dances for the performance called the Jewels. She's wearing a red costume because she is the jewel ruby. She inspires me as a writer because dancers are like writers because every time a dancer takes a step it is like writing a word. And dancing is beautiful just like writing. I like dancing and writing together.

  13. A picture that inspires me is a painting by Leonid Afremor. The painting is of two story building of earth tone colors with a small balcony on the second floor surrounded by autumn colored trees with a reflective ground caused by the rain. The picture makes me feel like playing in the rain puddles. Afterwards I feel like sitting on the balcony with a cup a tea watching the sun set. The picture places me in a peaceful place which I would love to live.

  14. This picture shows a woman walking on a dirt road in a town. It looks like that she had been traveling. She wore a dark color straw hat, a leather brown satchel, and a brown traveling robe. She also carried a book bag. With the tall castle-like buildings in the background and a wall on one side of the road and two trees on each side of the corner, the dirt road she walked on seems to be at the edge of the town or at the out-skirt of a big city. The blue sky without much of the cloud and the buildings with different shade of white were painted in such loose strokes with loose edges. It is not focus, fuzzy but yet give out a warm and calm feeling.


    When I look at the picture, I feel that I am in a totally different time and place. I feel that it is a on-going movie, and I can finish the story by writing it.

  15. Galaxy Fight. Iron Man Vs. Galaxy Iron Man.My dad gave me this painting of Iron Man. It inspires me partly because my dad gave it to me. It is his favorite painting too because my uncle gave it to him and now my dad gave it to me. It also inspires me to write about Star Wars. It inspires me because Iron Man is battling in space and Star Wars also takes place in space. The picture is about two Red and Yellow Iron Men fighting in space. Both armors are different.1 Iron man has a pointy face. 1 Iron Man is about to attack by shooting a repulsor ray.

  17. I love and I'm inspired by Vincent Van Gogh's paintings.I'm inspired by him because,what he see's, he paints.He's one of the artist that swirls his paintings and never paints up and down or strait across.Even though he cut off his ear he still was a really good artist.

  18. I like the picture of Messi with his 4 world cup trophies. It inspires me because it shows that you can do anything if you really try and train, even be the best soccer player in the world. It also inspires me because I tried that and it really works! Because of this I am now 10 times better than I used to be at the beginning of last year. I think it can also help out other people if they want to be the best soccer player in the world.

  19. This picture was taken this summer in Montauk. We are on the beach and I'm ridding a horse called Sunny. Sunny and the horse next to us are eating grass from the beach. You can also see the instructor coming to our rescue.

    This picture inspires me because I really like horses and I like to write about real things (non-fiction). Looking at this picture makes me remember everything that was happening in that moment. I even remember the sound of the water clashing on the rocks, it sounded like thunder. Montauk is a beautiful place.
