For your next essay you will be writing about art. I would like you to write about one of the pieces in the Pappajohn Sculpture Park located just west of the library in downtown Des Moines. For this assignment you are to choose one of the sculptures and discuss it in relation to the other pieces in the collection. I'd like for you to discuss the artist and whether the piece is characteristic of other work the artist has done. Describe the piece in detail. Cite three sources that provided you with additional information on the sculpture and the artist. You may want to include a photograph and cite your source (even if the photo is one you take yourself). Your essay should contain a thesis statement, at least three supporting ideas and a concluding paragraph. Use figurative language and descriptive adjectives where appropriate. Experiment with the effect of short and long sentences. Because you are writing about art your goal should be to create an artful essay. Be certain to proofread.
