Intuitive Painting - 2nd class

Find a poem or other piece of writing that inspires you. Don't illustrate - instead, allow it to influence you, let it take you on a journey. Think of the mood or atmosphere the poem creates. Think of the colors it makes you see. Start with a color, just let the painting start to happen. Follow your instincts. Stay away from painting "something". Try not using a brush! Visit CreativeEveryday for a view of one of my students' approach, using a poem by Mary Oliver. Thank you Leah! I need to be better about taking photos in class...
