What Inspires You?

 

 

This is your INSPIRATION BANK. You will create a page in your “Inspiration Journal” for each of these ideas. There are no limits for your Inspiration pages. I want you to open your mind, use your senses and creativity. This writing will not be graded or critiqued. It will strictly be used for idea seeking purposes. Inspiration journal will be part of your weekly homework and will be checked for completion.
