Dear all,
We hope you enjoy studying Vermeer’s “The Guitar Player”.
Please share your writing, thoughts and art inspired by the painting.
i think she is 16 yrs old and she was holding a guitar and looking at
somebody. there is a picture in the background.
Good job Daniel,
I really like your idea and how you described how old she is!
I agree with you but I have a different Idea I think she is in her early adult years because in the past wealthy woman liked to learned how to play the guitar
the girl is 19 years old. She likes to play the guitar and in the pianting we think she is looking at her friend. She is obviosly rich and maybe famous. In this painting she is distracted.
Age: 11-17
she lives in a posh house some where in Britain. Family members mum,dad,1 brother,1 sister she also has 23 servants.She likes to play guitar so she does lessons. She is looking at a member of family but it is small.
she looks like she is 13 years old and she is wearing yellow and white and there are dots and she is looking and someone or something.she is playing a guitar that is very fancy because it has gold. in the back round there is a table on the table has books.
Very observant!I did not even notice the table with books!
Age:11-17
She lives in a posh house some where in Britain.Family members mum,dad,1 brother 1
sister.She also has 23 servants.
In the painting you can see a rich girl playing a guitar . to the left of the painting a stack of books can be seen . in the back round a painting another panting of a cluster of trees are seen.
The girl looks like she comes from a rich family because of her clothing and it was very
expensive to have a portrait in those days. We think that she is a teenager because her hair looks childish but her clothes look grown-up. Her family probably chose to put a painting with a gold frame to show everyone that they were rich. She was probably looking at a music stand, left out of the painting because it would cover her face.
Nice work!
It’s great!
this girl is rich because she looks fancy. She is playing Guitar and she might be looking
at her Teacher. she looks like her early 20’s. there are some books beside her she might be in her room. there is as picture with a golden frame that is why i think she is in a rich family
The girl looks as if she came from a rich family she might be in quite a fancy palace.She could be from 12-18 and she plays or is learning guitar.She could be looking out of the window ,at someone or at the music stand .She is probably curious so quite happy .She has childish curls but grown up clothes .She is from a rich family because she is wearing really nice clothes and painting behind her with a gold frame .
I think she is looking at a music stand.
And she is not getting distracted from everyone
She is happy when people
She’s around 13 to 15 year’s old and we also think she’s looking at her parents or guitar music.She is being distracted by her parents and she’s also talking.she’s smiling because she’s having her favorite meal.
i like this panting . she looks qite rich and wealthy and she might be looking at a friend if she has any.
The guitar playing painting is shown a girl playing the guitar. She is very young, she is destracted from playing the guitar. And behind her she has a painting of a tree which it looks like her hair waving down. Her guitar is very high standard and next to her there is some chairs and tables and some books.
I think she is rich . She might be looking at a friend or family . She likes what she is looking at because she is smiling . I think she is 16 . And on the guitar there is gold where the hole is meant to be .
The guitar player is a very interesting painting because there are lots of questions to it like,how old is she?Well I think she is about 16 or 18 year because she has a very grown -up face. Theres also a very hard question which is what is she looking at?As you can see in the picture she is smiling so you know that she is looking at something positive!
Do you think she is rich because i do
Dear diary,
Today my four brothers were jumping on my bed. They woke me up. I was mad but not too mad.
This is the diary entry that I wrote.
Later aunt and uncle came for dinner and I sang them a song on guitar. Finally I read one of my amazing books
Dear diary,
Today my four brothers were jumping on my bed. They annoyingly woke me up. I was mad but not to mad.
This was my first part of my diary entry.
We loved studying these pictures
Dear diary,
I was feeling nervous because I was going on a stage in front of five million people. I was wearing a yellow,fury dress with rabbit fur. I was practicing my voice la-la-la-la-la-la and getting my voice in tune. People are coming pass my dressing room to wish me good luck.
Dear diary ,
This morning I woke up and my family made me put on a really fancy dress and a pearl white necklace. Afterwards I practiced playing the guitar for performing in front of my friends and family .
It all started normal just like an ordinary day, I had my lessons like my English, and my maths, and of course my spellings, but then my dad came home and the whole day changed . He had given me a guitar!! I was so surprised!!!
Dear Diary,
Today was the best day of my life because me and my family are now rich (a bit more wealthy). So, it was a normal day until I came round this poster that said ‘ guitar contest come join today!’ I was filled with excitement. I wanted to enter and so I did. I already knew how to play the guitar pretty well but, I knew that other contestants would be better than me at playing the guitar so, I practised everywhere I brought it with me so I can ace that competition.
I hope you enjoyed it!
Dear Diary,

Dear Diary,
today I was playing the guitar while having my portrait taken! It was going brilliant until my mother came in and ruined it all. She walked in the door and gave me a book, she put it on my table beside me. She made me look at her and grimace. The painter thought I was still posing. I wasn’t. I don’t even like books!
dear diary,
i was really happy that my dad had finally called me for dinner because it was getting boring playing my guitar over and over again.
Dear diary,
Today I was having a guitar lesson and was interrupted by my friend Jess.She had come in and asked me if I wanted to play outside.I said ”You go first I am just finishing my guitar lesson.”My mum had paid a artist to paint me.

Dear diary,

Dear Diary,
After a pleasant walk in the countryside, I returned home t have my portrait painted while playing my guitar! I was in the middle of my favourite tune when my best friend walked through the door! I was overjoyed and immediately distracted from my guitar playing. We had known each other since we were babies, but since we left school we had seen each other less and less. Now we were finally together again, I asked her to stay the night and she said yes! I am so happy to see her again.
Dear Diary,
Today I played the guitar all day but then dad came in.I was really happy that he came in i was really happy that he came that I got distracted by it. I went in to give him a big hug. I exploded with joy. I thought I was dreaming for a second. I am really looking forward to giving dad a great big hug tomorrow.

Dear KenWood house,
Firstly, thankyou for inviting me over! I really enjoyed the tour of all the paintings and I hope to come again! My favorite painting was old London bridge. Also kenwood house is in my top three favorite trips!
This is my diary
Dear diary,
My guitar practice today was spiffing, although father wont like this, but I can’t help staring at the most beautiful thing in the world.
I might add some more eye liner tomorrow, to much eye lids. I can’t wait for tomorrow , the one thing I love, more than looking at myself in the mirror and don’t forget make up is I think you already know this but I love terribly going outside with things like flowers nearly as pretty as me! I know I can hardly believe it either!
Remind me I must get a new mirror, 47 is not nearly enough. A few more should do it.
I hope grand-mama will finally let me go outside whenever I want , I know I say that
every night but you never know when luck might change hopefully it will soon! Life has its moments when it all gets better! I hope I see you again soon! I have nearly run out of pages, anyhow see you soon!
Dear Kenwood house,
I am thanking you for the tour you gave us on Monday morning . The people who gave us the tour were nice and were good at explaining things that we didn’t know.
From Hector thank you for reading
hi everone
