#OnePanelVSS
April 27, 2026
I got my prompts this week and the obvious scenarios hit me. They are “scald” and “balls”. But I wanted something a bit different. That REALLY got me stuck. I couldn’t think of anything outside of a waiter spilling soup. Then I opened Instagram and there it was…the Tourons of National Parks page with two idiots wandering around a geyser field. An idea was born.
Weekly disclaimer/explanation: For those new and/or unfamiliar with my #OnePanelVSS, it is purely a writing exercise. Like sketching for your prose muscles. Use the image to come up with whatever you think is happening. No need to use my prompt words in the writing. But I would love to see what you come up with, so please tag me on social media! (I’m paintmonkeyart on Bluesky and Instagram and Paintmonkey Studios on Facebook.)
May your week be productive in ways that matter to you. Be safe.
