Jade: You did a really great job summarizing Wright’s essay! If I hadn’t read the article beforehand, your summary would’ve given me a better indication of what it was about! My only suggestion would be to shorten the length of your post just a little. You went into a lot of detail (which was really well written!) but since it was a summary, you could’ve just gone through the main ideas :)
Your Frida Kahlo post was great! The picture you decided to write about was intriguing. I liked how you could relate to the painting because it made you think of how you like to reflect on a number of things while you’re relaxing. I too would like to know more about the background behind the painting. Awesome writing!
Kayla: I really enjoyed reading your summary! The points you chose to talk about truly captured the essence of what the article was about. Your concluding paragraph was really well-written. It left me thinking, which is always one of an author’s goals: to leave the reader with something to ponder over.
I’m not sure if you did this on purpose or not, but I thought it was a great idea to leave out the portrait of Frida Kahlo’s that you wrote about. As you were describing the images within the painting, I could clearly picture everything in my head, and I was able to appreciate your explanation much more than if I was actually able to see the drawing for myself. The last statement you wrote was powerful. Amazing posts this week Kayla!
