Members were supplied with a choice of coloured pencil and this picture (this atmospheric Monet). The colour of the pencil suggested the mood of the writing when taken with the Monet image. For eg. Black pencil = dark mood, yellow pencil? Sunny and happy. Members were asked to include an element - sky, water, fire etc.
Responses to this were varied and ranged from poetry through to prose. You can do this yourself as a writing warm up - use this image. Time yourself for ten minutes and choose the pencils from a bag that you can't see through (be honest). Thanks Naomi and Cass!
