Monster Portrait by Caroline and Daniel

Monster Recreation by Matt and Trish

Description by Daniel and Caroline You are about to meet the Big-Eared Pig. Put your paper vertical. His head is round with the wide angle pointing towards the head. The eyes are in the shape of leaf. His nose looks like a pig nose. His mustache starts at one edge of the ear, touches his nose, and goes to the other edge of the ear. He has tiny hairs on top of his head. His mouth looks like a wide U. His hair is orange. His nose is yellow. His head is sea foam green. His ears are wild orchid. His body is an inch wide and curves to the left. It is long and skinny like a snake. He has two tiny hands and five fingers on each hand. His nails are red and his hands are blue. His body is turquoise, purple, orange, wild orchid, then skip the turquoise and repeat the pattern so that purple appears four times. The tail is a circle that is red. It is attached to a green diamond that has black stripes. Outline the whole monster with fine line pen. Now you are done with the Big-Eared Pig.

Analysis by Angus and Daniel These are some things we described clearly. The head that they drew is the same color as the head that we drew. The hair was the also the same color as ours. The nose really looked like a pig's nose. We explained the body and its shape clearly. These are things we need to describe better. We did not tell them to make the ear long and triangular. We didn't say the mustache was supposed to be blue. The mouth was a small wide U instead of a large wide U. We forgot to tell where the green diamond was supposed to be. We did not describe the hand. We didn't tell what direction the eyes were supposed to be. They made the body horizontal instead of vertical because we didn't describe it clearly.
