Hallelujah! The Inauguration. At Last!

What an interesting series of paintings! The New York Times posted this on their web site: "The Inauguration. At Last"--a lovely artistic journal of one participant's impressions upon attending the inauguration on January 20th. What strikes me is the spareness of the language she uses, as if she were writing poetry and then illustrating it with her own small journal sketches. How would you use this in your class? Is it possible that this kind of journal keeping could help model reflections that include the use of multi-media like this?
