It is also cool because you get to see what everybody else made and it's nothing like yours. I learned that patience is key. You want to take your time and perfect it to make sure you get it exactly the way you want it. I wish i would of added something else to the simple painting down below. After i finished it, I realized it was a little plain. One this that I would want to improve on is the letters on the rainbow painting and make them more straight. One idea that I was trying to get across was the painting with the quote. The quote say "Live life in color." I chose that quote because it went good with my background and it is a good message.
For the first week of gamification, I decided to do painting. I chose painting because it is something I enjoy. It challenges me but i have fun doing it. There is a lot of freedom in painting which I love. When you are painting, you do it in steps. I also think of it as layers. Because I did different painting, I had to do different steps for each. For my first painting, the one with the rainbow, I had to do it in many steps. I first chose my colors, then I had to paint my thumb the color that was next. I obviously started with red, then I washed my thumb and paint brush and was off to the next color. I did that for the rest of the paper. One thing that I don't normally do is wait for it to dry. I just like the slightly blended look. My favorite part of this was the freedom we got. We could paint anything we wanted to. In other classes, we have to do the same thing as everybody else. That is really boring. It is also cool because you get to see what everybody else made and it's nothing like yours. I learned that patience is key.

I like the multiple finger prints and the variety of colors used to add to the "live life in colors" it really does contribute to that theme.

I really liked how you had so many fun colors in your painting. I think it looks amazing! I can really understand how you made these paintings because you had lots of process photos. Great job!
