Description:

Here, you’ll ponder shades and meanings of blue. In On Being Blue, William Gass suggests, “Of all the colors, blue has the widest range of associations, and the widest bandwidth of emotional tints and shades. It is therefore the most suitable color of interior life.” Practice writing descriptive, expository, narrative, and analytical essays, inspired by reading fiction, philosophy, poetry, psychology, and essays. Readings serve as prompts for conversation, research, literary and visual analysis, in support of creative and critical writing, and making art.
