Her artistry surfaced when she began to play piano at age nine. While some students Struggle to learn a new instrument, Alice found that music came naturally to her; the notes jumped easily fromher fingers to the Keys. Those same fingers now grasp graphite sticks, charcoal, and chalk to transfer Alice’s creativity to physical expressions of art. She mainly enjoys drawing, and she loves to sketch both people she knows and celebrities she can only dream of meeting someday. Her talent for drawing sets her apart from her siblings, Francine and Steven, but her source for inspiration comes from their influence. When Alice was young, her sister loved to read Jane Austen, and she shared this fascination with Alice, who now enjoys British novels, T.V. shows, and movies-and often uses their formidable characters as models for her art. Alice’s bold yellow bedroom brightens her day like sunshine and provides a colorful and cheerful environment for her pursuits. Posters of the Doctor, art by Van Gough, and stylish scarves surround her as she absorbs the color and art around her before spreading it back into the world again.Your Classmate’s Name: Your Classmate’s Best Attribute: Detail That Supports This Attribute:Credits: Ready students for this assignment with fun and specific photo writing prompts that hone students’ descriptive writing skills.
