Writing Assignment #3, Draft 1


Egg

A smooth, opaque sculpture. It'’s rather abstract, and the monochromatic masterpiece is composed of soft hues and slivers of highlights. It resembles a blank canvas just waiting to be discovered. A fragile, watercolor soaked object, but also a hard, defiant one, a rough charcoal sketch of new life. When it is crushed, a silky transparent paint seeps out, followed by a lazy golden mixture of oil and clay. It spreads across the paper, a collage of clear fluid and one of the primary colors.

This is breif, but pretty, and descriptive too. You make the metaphor tangible, and that's super important, after all. I applaud your choice of subject as well as the application of the terminology, well selected.
