Core Assessment
Day Two: Imitation Writing

2. Write down what stylistic techniques this painter uses

3. How does this painter compare?

4. Genre Apprentice
Pissarro (painted the first) was a famous painter in the impressionist movement
Gauguin (painted the second) became his student
It becomes clear then, how the first painting influenced the second, but it is also apparent that these two artists have their own creative visions

5. The Connect?
As Gauguin was an apprentice to Pissarro, so you are called to be an apprentice to Whitman

6. Imitation Poetry
You will be borrowing stylistic techniques from Whitman to develop a poem of your own
Just as these two paintings share stylistic choices, but differ in what they choose to convey
Do not sacrifice your ideas/beliefs/truth, just try out expressing it by using techniques from Whitman’s work
