Descriptive Paint?
Yes, descriptive paint. We are going to practice our descriptions by describing paint colors. We will use similes and metaphors to make it rich and exciting.
- Metaphors: a figure of speech in which a word or phrase is applied to an object or action to which it is not literally applicable: “I had fallen through a trapdoor of depression,” (Oxford)
- Simile: a figure of speech involving the comparison of one thing with another thing of a different kind, used to make a description more emphatic or vivid (e.g., as brave as a lion, crazy like a fox). (Oxford)
What to do:
- Pick any three colors from this site.
- Take a screen shot of each color
- Stick it in Pages, and write a one or more sentence description for each one.
