So Many Emotions!: Prompt

Although I am creating this post with photos of 3 pieces of art, this is not an ekphrastic exercise. Rather, I want you to consider how each piece uses metaphor to visually depict

strong emotions.


This first painting is entitled Grief. It is by Antanas Žmuidzinavičus.


The second piece is Joie de Vivre. It is by Mark de Suervo.




The last piece is Fear in the Woods. It is by Hugo Simberg.



Imagine grief, joy, or fear--as well as any other emotion--and think about depicting it without stating what it is. Think of the colors, textures, shapes, and elements you can use to express that feeling. No matter what type of art you are creating--written or visual--see if you can express the other senses purely by metaphor and symbol.


Happy November!
