Sam's supporting sketches for her recent English Project about the novel, Thursday's Child.

1. Inside the
Reader’s Mind
What Sam did while she was
Waiting for computers to load

2. While I was waiting for computers to load, or
sitting in classes listening attentively to my
teachers, I decided to do a few sketches
and plan my photos a bit.
So, that is how this presentation came to
exist. I thought some of you might be
interested in the planning of my final piece.
Hope you enjoy it!

knotted and naked,
groping”

to the opposite bank”

a handful of tree root”

flowerbud”
