What to Focus On

  • A picture composition can be built around the picture or suggested by it.
  • It helps present emotions in an organised way.
  • The writing must stay connected to the picture.
  • Short story: a brief story built from the picture.
  • Narrative composition: a connected account of events suggested by the picture.
  • Descriptive composition: a description of the scene, mood, and feelings suggested by the picture.
  • Observe the picture carefully and note the characters, surroundings, and ambience.
  • Think about the feelings the picture creates.
  • Plan the draft before writing.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

A picture composition should describe every visible detail exactly as it appears.

Any story can be written, even if it has little or no connection to the picture.

The first step is to start writing immediately.
