I love the Art Club! It starts at 6 o’clock and ends at 7 o’clock. I only go there twice
a week after school, but it is open from Monday to Friday. We can paint, draw
and even make sculptures! The teacher tells us everything about great artists and
we make copies of their most famous works of art. She says we should make our
own art and I try to do it, but I don’t have a big imagination.
My last work of art was a copy of the Monalisa.
The teacher said it was fantastic!
