CREATIVE SPARK #2: It's All In a Word


Today's word: TEXTURE

Look at the picture above and interpret its meaning.
Imagine its context -- try to place the object into a setting.
Think about the tactile sensations you'd experience by running your hand along it.

Write a paragraph that begins with, "The object was heavy in my hands and cool to the touch."

For the artist, sketch the curves you see here. Concentrate on the definition in shadow versus light.
