Descriptive Essay:

A descriptivr essay turns you into a creative artist. The pen transforms into a magic paintbrush which paints a capturing picture of the described object.  This is a simple art which requires basic guide from college or school teachers.

In your description essay you may depict some place, event, person or anything that is significant to you and will be interesting to the readers.

Basically you are free to describe anything you want. Just do it well.

You will hardly need doing any research or (though sometimes it may be necessary) to write a descriptive essay. You can write about something from your point of you.
As you write your descriptive essay, the best way to create a vivid experience for your readers is to focus on the five senses.

sight
sound
smell
touch
taste

When you focus your descriptions on the senses, you provide vivid and specific details that show your readers rather than tell your readers what you are describing.

a person

a place

a memory

an experience

an object

Ultimately, whatever you can perceive or experience can be the focus of your descriptive writing.

Here are some guidelines for writing a descriptive essay:

Take time to brainstorm:

If your instructor asks you to describe your favorite food,
 make sure that you jot down some ideas before you begin describing it.
For instance, if you choose pizza, you might start by writing down a few words: sauce, cheese, crust, pepperoni, sausage, spices, hot, melted, etc. Once you have written down some words, you can begin by compiling descriptive lists for each one.

Use clear and concise language:

This means that words are chosen carefully, particularly for their relevancy in relation to that which you are intending to describe.
