Daily Creativity #10: Create an Art Piece of One of Your Happiest Moments

Create a visual representation of one of your happiest moments. You could re-stage it for a photograph, paint it with watercolors, or use any other medium that you can come up with.


Today’s project is an art project. You can approach this project by being literal–you depict in a painting, drawing, or photograph exactly what you are remembering. But it is also possible to approach this more impressionistically–a sky full of fireworks, a flying bird, a lovely flower, might be ways to express the right feeling of happiness that the moment made you feel.
