During the time we spend on learning attributes of modern literature I will attempt to show my class mates the relation between paintings and novels through a visual context.
For example, for those who have read “The Killers” by Ernest Hemingway, a painting that would best fit the story would be “Nighthawks” by Edward Hopper.

Good call, Lan. Can you embed an image of that painting and then talk about it a bit?
I definitely see your points, and I do agree. But I also still think she could have been more humble towards them since she isn’t as good as they thought. Although she said multiple times she didn’t, I think she felt she was superior to them. That’s why I do have sympathy, but I think of her more of a psycho than anything. That’s just the way I saw it, but I also get where you’re coming from.
You are the first person I have seen that is exploring the impressionism aspect. I didn’t even think of this when i was choosing a topic. It’s cool that you can tie this project in with your own love of art, too. Hopper’s picture definitely fits the setting for The Killers, although i wonder what Ernie would have chosen to go with his story. With a play like Streetcar would you be able to pick one photo to “summarize” the whole story, or would you do more of a slide show type of ordeal?
Its really cool that you can fit the pictures to stories, I could never do that. You must have a different take on the stories we read than me, or anyone else because as Nicole said you’re the only one doing impressionism. Its a little weird how that picture can be fit to The Killers and the poems we were reading before.
Loved how you used this pic. It is perfect to be used in getting a quick visual of the killers. It seems like it’s from the story. Good job and love your attribute. This should be a good one.
