Commentary about works in progress, design & creativity
Have you seen the original prompt?
I didn’t know what to draw for this prompt word. I looked through my previous drawings and saw one of the vacation series and tried to draw wet sand. I don’t think I quite got it, but I think it gives the impression of sand being different.
Try it yourself.
Again I was making myself crazy wondering what I would do with this prompt. Old? Really?
It is a good thing when you start thinking about alternative words. I am pretty pleased with the result.

Definition: “In combat sports and hand-to-hand combat, a kick is a physical strike using the foot, leg, or knee (the latter is also known as a knee strike). This type of attack is used frequently, especially in stand-up fighting. Kicks play a significant role in many forms of martial arts, such as Taekwondo, Karate, Pankration, Kung fu, Vovinam, Kickboxing, Muay Thai, Capoeira, Silat, and Kalarippayattu.
Kicks are also used for kicking objects such as balls, books etc. If a human uses a kick in sport, it would most likely be used for kicking an object into a goal such as kicking a soccer ball into a goal and so on.” (Wikipedia)

Aid?
Really?
What kind of prompt is that?
Who thought of THAT word?
Yeah, I thought all of that, but then part of the street scene that I sometimes draw came to me. You never know where inspiration will strike.
Take a look at the original prompt.
Have you tried the Creative Prompt? I am continuing to work on my responses, though I haven’t posted many here lately. time, as usual, is my enemy and I have been spending tons of time on my Star sampler. I have a few responses to post, though and will do that over the next few days.
Check out the original prompt for Princess. Oh my goodness! I didn’t think I was ever going to think of a response, then I resorted to my window shopping theme. A princess shopping at Artquiltmaker.com? Why not?
5 minutes. Try out a response of your own. Have a great day
My aunt loves irises and I was thinking about her and flowers today. Although ‘Iris’ was not on my original list of prompts, I thought it would inspire some wonderful responses. What will you create today?

Iris Murdoch, born July 5, 1919
Iris Murdoch – “Love is the extremely difficult realization that something other than oneself is real.”
Definition: (Anatomy) “The iris (plural: irides or irises) is a thin, circular structure in the eye, responsible for controlling the diameter and size of the pupil and thus the amount of light reaching the retina. The color of the iris is often referred to as “eye color.”- (Wikipedia)
Definition: (Plant)- “Iris is a genus of 260–300[1][2] species of flowering plants with showy flowers. It takes its name from the Greek word for a rainbow, referring to the wide variety of flower colors found among the many species.[3] As well as being the scientific name, iris is also very widely used as a common name for all Iris species, though some plants called thus belong to other closely related genera. A common name for some species is ‘flags’, while the plants of the subgenus Scorpiris are widely known as ‘junos‘, particularly in horticulture. It is a popular garden flower.
The often-segregated, monotypic genera Belamcanda (blackberry lily), Hermodactylus (snake’s head iris), and Pardanthopsis (vesper iris) are currently included in Iris.”(Wikipedia)

Definition: “Red orange” redirects here. For the web color, see red-orange. For other uses, see Blood orange (disambiguation).
A sliced blood orange.
The blood orange is a variety of orange (Citrus × sinensis) with crimson, almost-blood-colored flesh. The fruit is smaller than an average orange; its skin is usually pitted, but can be smooth. The distinctive dark flesh color is due to the presence of anthocyanins, a family of antioxidant pigments common to many flowers and fruit, but uncommon in citrus fruits.[1] The flesh develops its characteristic maroon color when the fruit develops with low temperatures during the night.[2] Sometimes there is dark coloring on the exterior of the rind as well, depending on the variety of blood orange. The skin can be tougher and harder to peel than that of other oranges.
While all oranges are likely of hybrid origin between the pomelo and the tangerine,[3] blood oranges originated as a mutation of the sweet orange.[4]
Within Europe, the Arancia Rossa di Sicilia (Red Orange of Sicily) has Protected Geographical Status.[5]” (Wikipedia)

Walt Whitman: Song at Sunset
“Clouds come floating into my life, no longer to carry rain or usher storm, but to add color to my sunset sky.” quote / Rabindranath Tagore
Definition: Sunset or sundown is the daily disappearance of the Sun below the western half of the horizon, i.e. at an azimuth greater than 180 degrees, as a result of Earth’s rotation.
The time of sunset is defined in astronomy as the moment when the trailing edge of the Sun’s disk disappears below the horizon. The ray path of light from the setting Sun is highly distorted near the horizon because of atmospheric refraction, making the sunset appear to occur when the Sun’s disk is already about one diameter below the horizon. Sunset is distinct from dusk, which is the time at which the sky becomes completely dark, which occurs when the Sun is approximately eighteen degrees below the horizon. The period between sunset and dusk is called twilight.
Locations north of the Arctic Circle and south of the Antarctic Circle experience no sunset or sunrise at least one day of the year, when the polar day or the polar night persist continuously for 24 hours.
Sunset creates unique atmospheric conditions such as the often intense orange and red colors of the Sun and the surrounding sky. (Wikipedia)

I don’t always have an idea of what I am going to draw when I think of a word. I wasn’t sure what I would create with this one.
Fortunately, I think this response came out pretty well, I think. I like the way the unfrosted portion of the cake came out.
Look at the original prompt and create a response of your own.
Autumn is long gone at this time, but I am still about 15 responses behind. This response was easy to do. I don’t know why, but it just flowed out of my pen.

I was inspired by the previous response of Drink by the rows of bottles and it made me think of a bakery. I had a hard time thinking of different shapes for the cakes. I hope that the shapes aren’t too boring.

I went out with a work vendor a few weeks ago. It was a nice outing; a relationship building kind of event. We sat the bar and I faced the wall of bottles, which are endlessly fascinating to me. The arrangement of them is a kind of art form all its own. I have taken some liberties with the colors of the liquor. If you prefer, you can imagine it to be sodas.

In Chinese Buddhism, the West represents movement toward the Buddha or enlightenment (see Journey to the West). The ancient Aztecs believed that the West was the realm of the great goddess of water, mist, and maize. In Ancient Egypt, the West was considered to be the portal to the netherworld, and is the cardinal direction regarded in connection with death, though not always with a negative connotation. Ancient Egyptians also believed that the Goddess Amunet was a personification of the West.[1] The Celts believed that beyond the western sea off the edges of all maps lay the Otherworld, or Afterlife.(Wikipedia)
