Draw | Write me: A Perfect Palette
June 30, 2014 - 7:29am — Inspiring
Visual Artists:
Pick a random palette. Draw something using only those colours.
Do not add black/white. Use only what you receive.
Written artists:
Look at the name of the palette. Write something based on the name
New palettes will be added from time to time. Don't be afraid to use the same one more than once should you pick it again someday!
I find this intensely
Thank you, Tuo and Kohva!
Ohhh. This could be fun to
Oh, this is interesting. I
Definitely tracking this.
EDIT: Wrote a little drabble/poem thing based off of Palette 2. Not sure if it`s my best, but I wanted to write something before I lost muse |D
I know you remember,
A tanned, generic sky,
Rose up above you, the puzzle of your life,
I do remember it well, I fled at its very sight,
Yet you act as if it merely exists,
There is no other purpose.
Days will pass, time stops for no one,
A single manic, hell-bent on control
Yet fate is a trickster, and it knows its game well,
You never stood a chance,
I never stood a chance.
And now the sky is setting,
The entirety, dimly lit mass,
The earth, impatient, swallows it whole,
You stand, you pretend you`ve been blinded.
Yet you knife you used to carve out your eyes
Turned out to be dulled, generations ago,
Should have known to steal would have gotten you nowhere,
The land beyond, the shape of your grave.
I know you remember, those old glory days,
When it seemed as if you`d fissure through the snow-capped peaks,
Like a maturing phoenix, you blossomed with power,
Flew straight into the wind,
Lost control,
And died.

23: Dance To Forget A knot
A knot sat fowl and heavy in her stomach, making her breathing heavy and labored. The forest seemed to be collapsing in onto itself, suffocating the tiny spot between the trees. She panicked, tense and paralyzed. Something wet. She recoiled.
Numb and stiffened, she stood in helpless distress as she watched the other animal ever so casually sniff over her flank with their damp snout, gently nudging her a bit along the way. She was being greeted. She could feel the world become dizzy as she noticed the rest of the friendly pack's attention falling on her.
A smell of earth wafted into her senses just as fear and anxiety started to choke the light out of the forest. Her eyes struggled, blinking, searching. A strange deer had nestled calmly at her feet, and was peering up at her with such overcoming gentility the forest itself slowly started breathing again. Another padded up and curled up to her left, beside the first, calm and easy. A gentile breeze blew. Another deer trotted up to preform a friendly greeting. She could breathe.
Wet Nose started prancing and lolling around, his wayward merriment seemingly contagious. Greeting Deer joined in. The fawn studied his movements, still feeling a trace of apprehension. One hoof and then the other.
She was dancing. Wet Nose was ecstatic.

1. Dancing in the Rain -
"Are you even listening?!" She said, fed up with having a one sided argument. She threw the towel she'd been drying dishes with in the sink and left her mother there to do it on her own. "You know, if you don't care, why should I?" She yelled over her shoulder. She grabbed a jacket and her i-pod and pushed through the screen door.
"Lise! Lise, come back it's raining!" Her mother yelled from the porch. The girl pulled her hood up and raised one finger in response. She pulled her headphones on under the hood and spun the volume up to a deafening level.
She let the playlist shuffle as she wandered aimlessly around the neighborhood. After ten minutes her jacket was soaked through and she was huddled in on herself to keep from shivering.
Ironically enough, Singing in the Rains happy tones came streaming through her headphones. She let out a smile, despite herself. She pulled the hood of her jacket back and tipped her head back, as she had seen Gene Kelly do in the movies so many times. Spreading her arms wide she let herself twirl down the sidewalk as the rain melted her troubles away, one drop at a time...
I'm here.
