RE: Stories in Art: Tales Untold
Those days when you draw a blank - often they end up being gifts from the muses, because they make you step outside for a while to get a new perspective. And pay attention to what catches your attention! Lesson clearly illustrated here. Haunting drawing. I love that assignment idea! I may need to borrow it for my arsenal. Thanks for posting. I love how you noticed you needed to add movement. It's like all these elements just work if you listen and will show you what needs to be done.
If you only allow yourself to listen, yes! Alas, my brain is very very chatty and doesn't allow for this often ;)
I once bought a big package of misc. ephemera from Ebay and passed out random pieces to my class for this assignment so we could start immediately. This is good because then students can't think about it too much and have to learn to trust that they can make something of nothing!
