Today's challenge for this Friday, 10-8-10, is to use the photo above to write a flash fiction of 60-90 words. And....let's try this for a required phrase:
"...taking hold..."
She looked around her pallet deciding which brush to use. Taking hold of the broadest thickest brush available, she began stroking vigorously. She wanted to quickly cover the canvas with a thick coat to set a passionate tone of her work. The more she worked the brush, she and the canvas became one. She could feel her creative juices flowing and she could feel that soon the creativity would explode from the brush. And there it was, big gushing globs sploshing the canvas running down over her hand and neck.

A true artist makes the most of all the tools available to them. "Broadest thickest brush" had me snickering.
Thanks for playing! Happy FFF!

This was the best so far this week for me. I love the brush=cock symbolism. Wonderful!
Ah, allegory. You did lay it on a bit thick at the climax, though ;) Teehee.
I love those allegories. Very well done!
Wonderful, Big Geek! I loved the metaphor. Very clever and creative!
Another painter's angle, I love it. And what a lovely canvas.
