This was the first project for our WARP class.  It was also the first time I had really painted anything.  Each student was to write down six verbs and put them in a hat.  Then, everyone would pick six verbs out of the hat.  Additionally, each student was given a color (picked from a book) at random.  The project was to create six unique paintings, one for each verb, all using the assigned color as the dominant color.  My verbs were “capture,” “connect,” “discharge,” “extort,” “move,” and “shine,” and my color was this really nasty green (the teachers called it “puke” green).  However, I soon discovered that this “puke” green was nearly the exact same color as lights that are often found on electronics, so I based three of my verbs around that.
