Response to Allison's Project Book

I had the opportunity to sit across from Allison this week in Sketchbook, and in that time learned so much from watching her develop her project book. I was fascinated to hear that most of the words associated with Dyslexia have definitions that could be interpreted in a visual manner. The way that she designed small windows to illustrate her artwork and used definitions to further develop her ideas in her project book inspired me to go farther with my own project book.

I was also impressed by the personal nature of her project. I think her interest and investment in her chosen subject generated an genuine connection between the audience and her artwork.
