Our piece of art was made by Grant Wood and was called The Midnight Ride of Paul Revere. He used a lot balance in his work with all the houses and had a lot of emphasis on the road because of the leading lines. There was also implied movement with the horse Paul Revere was riding. The movement of the horse made the image look a little less like it was made out of toys. The proportions were also important in the piece with the big mountain in the back in the white church which also showed contrast from the brown houses and green grass.
We got some feedback from people saying they liked our snowflakes and the idea of the snow but thought the shingles didn't look to much like shingles.
I thought Nikki's work (a helicopter) was successful because it had an actual moving parts and really looked like a helicopter.
