WORDS IN FRONT OF ME

 Here is a great idea for refining your noticing skills: I call it WORDS IN FRONT OF ME.

Sit in front of any window with a notebook on your lap and pencil in your hand. Let the frame of your window act as the edge of your paper; start left, right, top or bottom  and 'draw' what you see in words.

Here is my sample:
streaky white clouds scattered across a deep blue sky dome
deep green, long tapered willow leaves
hang from twig branches
dancing in the brisk breeze


heavy limbs 
bent trunk

leaning into stiff grass

old flowers
yellow glow


lean against brown picket fence
bent boards and broken

Yours in learning,
