New Game In Town

I was having trouble with coming up ideas for photos and artwork in general. My niece told me that she had a teacher who had a box of craft sticks on her desk that had sentences written on them The teacher would  have the kids draw a stick each then use the sentence on the stick as the beginning of a story.

From that idea I came up with another idea of my own to push creative ideas. I bought some small wooden disks at the craft store. I wrote nouns on 10 of them, places on 10, and titles of books, movies, songs on 10 more (both sides for a total of 20 for each category). When I get stuck for an idea I pull one disk from each pile and create something out of the words I pull. This one was I Robot, red & box.
