The Mind's Eye

Eyes, Vision, Insight..

Here are our Sunday Sketches! Using quick, on the spot imagery we have each created a sensory exercise describing the eye visually and in verse.


Insight

creation
contrast, shadow, line,
dark and light
colour's triumphant trumpet,
spectacular sunset, early bright

by L Moore



Perception

I open my eyes, so i can see
the beautiful world
that is before me

by C Moore age 10 (c) 2010



Revelation

Without our eyes, we could not see
the delicate flower, the resplendent tree.
So let us remember and not forget
our eyes may be the best things yet.

What is this? my son has taken two photos of his sketch and made an anaglyph image. Put on your 3D glasses (the ones that are red and blue) and check it out!

Enjoy! L C and T

- for those who asked, I have post the story behind last weeks little fairy Renewal (check out So Here's Her Story, Wednesday, May 12).

Have a great week my friends!

  4. Tammie - My son says you can make your own glasses - you just need two colours of cellophane; cyan (blue) for the right lens and red for the left lens, then cut a glasses shape from cardboard and tape lens cello on; or he says use felt pens to colour some plastic wrap of some kind the same way - now there's a project :-)

    Noteworthy since we have Greek guests, Cyan (pronounced /ˈsaɪæn/; from Greek: κύανoς (transliterated: kýanos), meaning "blue.

  6. The eyes are wonderful and the poetry is amazing. You and your children are so talented. I could not see the 3d and I am not home but will make some shades when I get home and come back to take a peek.
