I belong to a creative writing group, Harmony Ink, that meets at the Bottlebrush Gallery.

As a writing exercise we pick pieces of art from the gallery to inspire us to write a quick paragraph or two. The writing can focus on the artwork or any emotions, thoughts or feeling the art evokes.

 

This is my guess /writing exercise at how Deb creates her very cool artwork.

 

 

Something smelled wonderful, irresistible. Where was that aroma coming from? Led by his nose the zebra walked through the tall grass toward a hut. The hut was hidden between small trees and boulders. All of his senses were telling him danger was near, but his nose insisted he follow the smell.

 

As he neared the hut he heard a low chanting sound, Hubbbbaaa haabbbbaaa  haabbbaaa.  The sweet smell and soothing chants, he had to look inside. The hut had one window. The frame was painted with red stripes and blue dots. It caused the zebra's eyes clouded over. The smell and chanting drew his feet onward. He stuck his head inside the window.

 

BOOM!   The artist sprang her trap. One zebra flash freeze dried and framed.

 

 

Well, I had fun at our last meeting. Can't wait for the next! Have a great day and stop back soon!
