strong positive or negative feelings about. The
person can be someone living or dead, but it
should be someone you know something about. In
the center of the third line, write an emotion or
a color that you associate with this person. This
word will be the title of your portrait. With the
person in mind, write one sentence to complete
each of the following. Do not number your

each asks in a sentence.
