Pick a word, any word.
A person gives me a word. Then I quickly light paint a portrait with a person that matches the word. Below are some examples. Most of these are from conventions, parties, and other events.
She said... "Venus Fly Trap"
In a few minutes, we had this picture. We went for something a bit reminiscent of Little Shop of Horrors.
He said... "Water"
I then asked what type of water he wanted. He replied... "Like in Avatar, the Last Airbender".
He said... "Blackberry"
Minutes later, he's picking a berry from a black berry bush.
"Cello"
This is Zoƫ Keating , a fairly well known and highly skilled cellist.
He requested... "Iron man"
Indecisive
He had a full day to pick his word. But when the time came, he still hadn't though of one. He said "I'm so indecisive". I asked, how about that word? He's a professional figure skater, so I aimed for a ground that felt a bit like ice.
"My pets".
She had a rabbit, a snake, a parrot, a short haired dog, and one furry puppy with floppy ears. Jackie Cash got to work drawing these. The remarkable thing is she is just blindly waving lights at the camera and can't see what she's drawing at all. But despite that, in just a few minutes, this is what Jackie drew.
They said... "Holy"
The aim was something mystical and holy- like an old religious painting. These two were actually quite mystical, so it wasn't a stretch.
