Every day I receive a text with a writing prompt from author Patti Digh. I do not write from them every day, instead choosing only to write those that I find have an unusual challenge. Such was the case today:
”You have been asked to write a description of one of your favorite paintings for a blind audience.”
In thinking of a few of my favorite paintings, it is not simply what you see in the painting but how it makes you feel. Can I successfully convey the feeling? I will be back later with the description and then a photo of the painting I chose. I suppose it will be up to my readers if I was successful.
Feel free to join in. You can link back to this post if you are interested in stretching your creative muscle.
Looking forward to seeing what you come up with, Maggie. 🙂
Best wishes, Pete.

I remember asking a blind friend in the fourth grade what she could see. I was clueless. She said I see what you see out of your elbow. That really brought it home. As for trying to explain a painting to her, I am not sure how I would do it at all.

I would have been clueless at that age, too.

She was very matter of fact which helped.
