Everything can be better. Everything can be improved. Art (nickname) really showed the process of an artist drawing. I really did not think he needed the background music. The sound his pencil and the movement of his hand was really neat. Also I do not remember if this occurs in the video, but it would be cool if he erased a part and redrew it to play off with the sound of the eraser and then hand brushing the erasing marks off. I felt as if I was the artist creating it and it was my hand-too bad I can't draw as well as him!

Sarah's was really comical. The music and the shredded paper coming towards her was funny. I do not know if she intended on this but it was. I agreed with Sheldon's comment on how she should have either cropped it or started it over the hill (although, unfortunately, there was wind). It looked odd coming from that random spot. 

Sheldon's made me want to cry. It made me really upset. Not that it wasn't good, it was amazing! But the whole swinging on the swing and childhood memories, along with the jack johnson music made me a little emotional, even though it was suppose to be playful. 

Mine. I wish I placed in a place filled with pictures, so that it was another picture hanging from the wall. Also Sheldon's comment on how I should make another one where maybe other orange flowers fill the vase so it seems like I feel more involved/wanted. I agree with Malena's comment on how it is something we can walk by and look at it cause of its size. I think making them stamp size and framing them on the wall would be more efficient.
