Peer Pressure

My mom said that I had to do an assignment on "Peer Pressure", so here it is:

Once upon a time, Jackson Pollock was in his barn, feeding the cows, until Jack's wife, Lee Krasner, came dashing into the barn saying "Guess what, I won the art festival!" But before Jack could say anything, Lee said, "Guess your new career!" (good peer pressure)

Lee with Jackson

Lee showed a large canvas siting on the ground. "Um, you know you did not have to do that..." Lee just pushed him anyway. He put his paintbrush in the paint can, Jackson started to paint little by little. After a month, his painting was finished. Lee came in, ''Pretty good, I mean, for a beginner " Jackson wrote "Jackson Pollock" At the end of the canvas. "That was actually really fun!" Lee put another big piece of canvas on the floor. "Up for it?"Said Lee."Sure" Lee went out of the barn. "oops"Said Jackson. Paint from his paintbrush had dripped on his canvas! "Hmm"He started to drip a little more paint on, then more, then more! Finally, after a week, he was done. "Lee,Lee!, come look at this I painted!" Lee came dashing in."Already?" Jack showed Lee his painting.
2 months later: Jackson was in the line at the art fair, waiting to turn his painting, when then, a man in the back of him said,"You call THAT a painting?My two-year-old can do that! Good luck to wining!" (Bad peer pressure)Jackson's feelings where hurt, but he didon't give up! Jackson stayed strong! When it was his turn, The lady that checks the painting asked,"Are you sure?" Jackson answered, "I'm sure" She gave him the "seriously?"look."It will tell you if you win in the newspaper." She said. "Thank you" Then he went back home. The next morning, Jackson was eating his breakfast and reading newspaper.
Finally, he found the article he was looking for.It said, AND THE GRAND PRIZE GOES TO: JACKSON POLLOCK.
THE END
