Main Point about
Brushstrokes…
“The writer is an
artist,
painting images of life with
specific and identifiable
brush strokes, images as
realistic as Wyeth and as
abstract as Picasso. In the
act of creation, the writer,
like the artist, relies on
fundamental elements.”

Participles painted by Hemingway in The
Old Man and the Sea:
 Shifting
the weight of the line to
his left shoulder and kneeling
carefully, he washed his hand in
the ocean and held it there,
submerged, for more than a
minute, watching the blook
trail away and the steady
movement of the water against
his hand as the boat moved.
Participles painted by
Angela

The gorilla stared
sadly at the people
outside the glass.

Resting his chin on
the rubber tire, the
gorilla sat,
wondering how he
came to be trapped
in this manmade
jungle.

Vivid verbs painted by Gary Paulsen in My

 The
result was spectacular.
The voltage hit his wet
mouth like a sledge and
stiffened him like a poker.
He snarled, growling
deeper, and tried to hang
on, but the jolt was too
powerful and slammed him
back and down on his rump.
Vivid Verbs Painted by Gloria
 The
UFO shot

leaving a trail of
light.
 The
UFO hurtled
across the sky
splitting the sky
with a trail of

The thing was coming towards her –
towards Henry, who stood with his
back to it – moving with a weak,
shuffling gait, that arm outstretched
before it, the dust rising from the
rotting linen covering it, a great smell
of dust and decay filling the room.
