For my concentration I am illustrating classic literature. This one is The Grapes of Wrath. I chose to illustrate the scene early in the novel when the turtle is injured by the truck. This scene symbolizes the plot of the novel; the turtle ,representing the farmers being crushed by the truck, the truck representing the big banks "the man"Saturday, October 11, 2008

I have not read the book but with this I feel like I have a pretty good understanding of what it's about. I think the tire looks great. Very nice job!
LOVE IT! the bold colors and contrast make this painting stand out and i feel like you really got your concentration across.
I feel like the shell is kinda distorted but I like your idea, very creative
This is AMAZINGG. I've read the book and written an entire paper on the symbolism of the turtle and the truck and you captured it beautifully. The paler background and monotonous tire (of the bank companies) really make the turtle more vibrant and symbolic. You chose a great concentration and created even greater art.
The colors in the shell look great!
i am obsessed with the turtle chapter-it was my favorite part! i love your topic its very unique. the bold lines of the tire and the shell are perfect for this drawing
ok i have not read the book but you completely caught my attention!! i especially love the conrasts of color between the amazing color in the turtle the darker shades used in the tire and a pale background was perfect
the shell looks kindahh weird but its cool
