Writing: Write about a regular day for you. It doesn’t have to be a day that actually happened. It should just be as realistic as possible. What did you see when you walked on the street? Did you talk to anyone? Describe in detail the mundane elements of that day.
Art: Draw a moment from the day above. It doesn’t have to be the most memorable or special. Include as many details as you can in your drawing.

Writing:
Take a moment and search within yourself. What is the primary emotion that you are feeling at this very second? Try to stray away from vague words, such as happy or sad, and instead attempt to pinpoint the exact adjective for the feeling that you are experiencing. Are you melancholy? Anticipatory? Drained? With this word in mind, write a piece that captures the emotion, WITHOUT USING THE WORD. This could take the form of a poem that literally describes the feeling, a short story of a situation in which someone might experience this emotion, or just free written prose about what it means to you. If you choose to share your writing at the meeting on Friday, everyone can try to guess which emotion you have described. Art: Follow the first step of the writing prompt, by identifying the primary emotion that you are experiencing. Draw/paint/collage/etc.. an image that represents this feeling. Is there a certain color scheme that comes to mind? A texture? Maybe a specific landscape or person? Channel all of this into your work, so that in the end, you’ll be able to immediately know what emotion you were trying to convey by looking at the artwork (I specified you because everyone associates different things with different feelings!). If you choose to share what you have created at the meeting on Friday, everyone can try to guess which emotion you were using as the inspiration for your piece. Writing: In honor of the world finally starting to look like it’s fall, create a cozy fall narrative. This can follow any plotline you’d like, but have it rooted in fall-themed activities/goodies.
Art: In the same vein as the narrative, create a fall wonderland. No limits to subject matter except the fall basis should be clear. Writing: Write a short story with the moon either as the setting or as a symbol. Go in-depth with the places and things on the moon if you choose the setting option, or use the moon as a symbol multiple times throughout your story.
Art: Draw a moon. It can be as realistic as you want with craters, hills, and rocks, or it can be made out of cheese or be the "man in the moon." You can also draw whatever you think of when you hear the word "moon." |
