An essay is a prose composition of a small size and free composition.

It expresses
individual experiences and views on a particular subject or issue.

So, what is the first thing that helps us to start working on writing descriptions?
First of all, as with writing of any work, it is necessary to consider the purpose,
subject and main idea of the future text. In my descriptive essay on a person, I
will write about this type of essay and show a couple of examples. I can easily do
this because I used a help of a homework writer who told me how to write such
essays.

A distinctive feature of these essays is the presence of adjectives and participles


in the text, because the main question is the question "what". What subject? What
kind of person? What area? What weather? What picture? What mood? Essays on the
descriptions are written by the next plan: first are general characteristics, then
details and the individual characteristics. In the end of writing, there are
general impressions.

The source of the descriptive essay on a person can be everything. As for other
descriptions, it could be a life experience, when a portrait is recreated from
memory (e.g., "The appearance of a person I saw once..."), or from imagination ("My
portrait in 10 years"). The source of descriptions can be a special observation,
including the painting. Another type of descriptive essay on a person is a verbal
description of the character of a literary work.

Here I will write about creating the main part of the essay � a description of
appearance, where it is necessary directly to describe it (and, hence, to enumerate
its trappings and details). What items can be listed in the appearance of any
person? The question will not cause trouble for you. It is enough to look at
yourself in the mirror and list these items: head, hair, face, forehead, eyebrows,
eyes, glance, a peculiarity of stature, growth, hands, feet, voice, clothing. Now
it remains to choose adjectives, participles for answering the questions: what
head? What kind of hair? What face? And so on... And now begins the most important
thing: think about do like the person you describe, or not? The answer to this
question depends on the main idea of the essay! After all, we can write a text
about the favorite person, the great friend, the nice relative, but also about the
unloved one, who will never be your friend...

When you determine what you want to express, you will begin to select material for
your work. You will try to find epithets, metaphors, impersonation, to emphasize
your attitude toward this man. If the person is unlikable for you, you can write
about this not directly �I don�t like this man�� The reader will be able to guess
himself, and you should help to do this matching definition.

Please note! Any description has always a certain aim. For example, you need to
describe a person. Ask a question: for what purpose? If in order to tell how cute
he is, then you will describe his appearance. If the goal is to write that he is a
very good friend, then you will have to describe not only the external features but
also his or her character.

For an example, I'll write a couple of essays that describe a person. It will be a
description of appearance, description of personal qualities and description of the
character. I also advise you to read the essay about character and get new
information about oneself.

My friend Lucy

I have a friend with a beautiful name Lucy. She is low on growth, brown-eyed and
black-browed. She has on her pale face barely visible freckles. Big brown eyes are
framed with long fluffy eyelashes. She always grins with her amazing smile. When
she laughs, her little nose wrinkles so funnily. She is very tidy. Her dresses are
always ironed. Lucy is a sincere friend. Between us, there are never secrets.
Together we read books, go to the library, prepare home tasks. When I was sick, she
always comes to me after classes, talks about school and about her adventures. But
the most interesting she talks about the new books she read. I want to listen to
her every day, listen without end. Lucy doesn�t avoid work and just coming home
from school immediately cleans up the room. I love my friend for her sensitivity,
kindness and spiritual purity. This essay on friendship proves it.

My neighbor

Considering the topic before writing this essay, I kept thinking about whom is
better to write: about someone of my friends, about my mother or about a familiar
aunt? So I decided to describe the appearance of any woman I have ever known, but
not related to me. So, I want to tell you about my neighbor - Emma. She is an
ethnic Armenian, and it manifests in all form in my neighbor. It is manifested in
everything: in the slightly hooked nose, in jet-black curly hair, in a soft, almost
velvet voice and in very strong accent. Emma is a middle-aged woman, she is over
forty. She is very tall, a little overweight but this corpulence surprisingly makes
her such a beautiful woman. Emma is a very interesting person. She loves to laugh
and to joke. But if she sees that I'm sad or upset with someone, she always helps,
talks to me and calms. This woman always smells of something delicious. Emma loves
a good (and terribly expensive!) perfume. She loves to wear gold jewelry and
doesn�t shy about this habit: she has golden earrings, a few rings on fingers with
beautiful stones, heavy vintage bracelet with a reddish tint. "Gold adorns a real
woman at the best way, it was invented especially for us," says Emma about her
jewelry. It's funny, but I agree that women should monitor their appearance and to
beautify oneself! I could write much more about Emma, but it should be clear: this
is an interesting and special woman!

My uncle Jack

My uncle Jack is a very interesting person. Uncle Jack is calm, kind and at the
same time cheerful person. He knows how to find a common language with everyone. He
never raises his voice and says harsh words. And my uncle has a terrific sense of
humor and knows how to tell great funny stories. He understands well the
technology. The only time when is better not to disturb an uncle Jack- when he is
busy. He works in the service center. He repairs mobile phones, laptops and digital
equipment. Uncle Jack is usually polite with everyone. He's always friendly to me,
gives a lot of time, shows and explains everything. He says he loves to communicate
with young people, because their minds are full of fresh ideas. I like the
character of my uncle. I'm glad that he often comes to visit us and we visit him.
The conversation with him is very interesting and informative.

So, do you see that it is very easy to describe a person? It is because I used this
services that taught me how to do it. You have to try it!
