SUB TOPICS
I am not quite sure what my sub topics are but I am thinking that i could write about certain places that she lived. In the different states or countries or cities her stlye of painting changed. For Example, when she lived in New Mexico her paintings where of bones she found and of the beauitful scenery around her.
