You can comment on the walk to the gallery, the people you saw, the art work in the gallery or your own or your peers' responses to the art that you saw.
Enjoy your writing. A paragraph, when well constructed has an introductory sentence that prepares your author for what's to follow. In the case of this assignment, you will be writing about your trip to the art gallery and about one of the works of art that you wanted to explore in greater depth. If you wish to write whimsically, introduce the paragraph with humour. If your intent is to be interpretive, begin with a thoughtful observation. What's most important, though, is that as you write the paragraph, you develop your ideas so that they flow naturally, from one to the next. Each sentence in the body of your paragraph should serve to develop the interpretation of the art you are writing about. Consider such things as medium, line, colour, texture, setting, theme and relevance. You might write about the frame or even the room that the art is in. You can also consider other student's reaction to the art that you are interpreting. As you come to the conclusion of your paragraph you might consider the larger picture of the importance of art in our community. A comment on your own walk back to the school might be a good way to conclude the essay. Most importantly, though, enjoy the process of creation, for that is what writing really is - creating.
