Review of A Painting a Day

The use of sound in this story is excellent. The audio from the truck, the farmer moving the cows and interviewing Harry in the field conveys a sense of place. Coupled with Lu's description, you can paint a picture of the landscape. Also, the tape of Harry is well edited and placed, requiring little narration. Lu does a good job of voicing with a conversational tone. Their is a good arc to the story - giving us a start of heading out in the morning and finishing the day with the unexpected stop for the cows.
Well done.
