Well, it is very important to make use of our sense of
imagination as it reflects our intelligence as well as creativity.
I often make use of this power and now I would like to talk about a time when I drew painting using imagination. I vividly remember, when I was in 7th grade, one time I fall sick and was not attending school for a while. During this time my school organized a painting competition so I was completely unawared about this contest. I had not had any preparation at all. The day after recovering, I went to school. I got to know that the painting competition is going to happen that day. My friends taking part in this competition were quite confident as they were prepared carefully. Well, I decided that I will come up something in my mind to make a painting. The competition started and all the painters had to come up with a painting in one hour time. I decided to make a painting of Hoan Kiem Lake using my imagination. It’s a picturesque landscape I had visited several so I was quite aware how it looks like. I started painting as I was visualizing. At the same time, I painted it with realistic colours. For example, I choose red for the bridge structure and blue to represent the water in the lake. In one hour, I completed and it was quite stunning. My teachers really appreciated me not only the painting but also, my sense of imagination that really helped me to draw this wonderful piece of art. Since, it was best among all. So, I was also honored by my teacher with a reward.
