Illustrator


With being discussion director my job is to draw some kind of a picture related to what I read in the section.  Out of everything I chose the scene when Salamanca's (the girl that takes up half of the paper) grandfather chooses to take a detour to this little place called the Pipestone National Monument in Pipestone, Minnesota.  This very picture is just them walking up to the monument when Sal see's the Native Americans, or American Indian as they like to call them selves, thunking away at the stone in the quarry after they have parked.  This scene in the book is also when Sal (a short name for Salamanca) tries smoking through a stone pipe (I found that kind of weird).  In our group discussion nobody could guess what time and place this was in the story so I thought and said to myself 'I should have added more details and that would make it easier for them to guess.
