Authors Note

I decided to choose the story “To – Da-dah, A Memorial” by Paula Marshal. The theme that I also decided to choose was images of nature and land. I chose this topic because I felt a personal connection when I read the story “To Da-Dah”. However, beyond my connection I was extremely intrigued by the different images of nature and land that I did witness throughout the story. When we did the collaborations and the gallery walks I gained a lot of information about my topic. I was not only able to receive other opinions and viewpoints but it made me think deeper about analyzing my topic. In the beginning when I first did my draft I was unsure if I was going to analyze my paper as best as could. After the different collaborations and hearing other peoples work, I was able to make the effective changes to my paper. I think the best thing that I lied about my paper is when I analyze the different images and what they really meant in the story.
