After reading An Angel for Solomon Singer and Emilys Art, I saw a lot of simallaraties and differences after reading the two storys. The syle if illustration was kind of the same in both books because they both used water colors in the books. For example in An Angel for Solomon Singer there was an up side down photo of many people. On the othere hand in Emilys Art there was all differrent paintings, out door backrounds, color pencilsand othere things. The moods of the books were mostly happy. There was a lot of different lines and shapes in Emilys Art, An Angel for Solomon Singer. Thats what i saw in the two books.
The Ilastor used boches of pant and had alot of colse ups.
In the book Angel for Solomon Singer I noticed that he used close ups and reflections. Also the lights in the signs looked real. I smiled at the part when he founed a place that made him happy. In Emilys Art I noticed some close ups. I saw pictures that looked real. And it was kind of sad when the judge said she hated dogs so she didn't like Emilys picture. The illustrations were very good.
In Angel For Solomon Singer i noticed that some things looked real. i liked it when he brought the cat to his house. 😉 In Emilys Artthe illsistrations were very good. i was amazed. they looked real.
In Angle for solomon singer Solomon singer hated his home and in Emilys art Emily was sad that she did not win the contast for the best drawing. In both storys people were sad about there life and were they live and there art.:)
In Angle for Solomon Singer the man did not like anything in his town. But one day he met a freind at a cafe and he was happy.
