1) Image: (n.)

A mental, tangible, or visual representation or description.


2) Imagination (n.)

The power to form something never before wholly perceived. Creative ability. Resourcefulness. A creation of the active mind, especially an idealized or poetic creation.


3) Emulsion (n.)

A reactive suspension forming a coating on photographic media, responsive to illumination. The state of a substance when its particles are mixed with but undissolved in another substance. The place where converging factors coalesce into specific creation.


Imagemulsion. It's images, imagination, photography - and where it all comes together.

Bring an ink pad to art class. Let every student make a fingerprint onto white paper. Blow up on the photocopier to 8x10 or larger, preferably printing onto a high-quality paper. Have your kids write words and phrases about themselves along the lines and whorls of their fingerprints, and sign. These would look great turned into encaustic paintings.  :)
