crayola crayons and markers on walls.
On my 18th birthday, my mother made me a portfolio of all the drawings I made from Pre-school to senior year of high school. The idea that my mother held on to these drawings for so long, meant the world to me because if anyone knew I was going to pursue an art career it was her.
Additionally I was curious as to how my current self could recreate my old drawings. Could it be possible to unlearn how to draw "correctly"? Could I put my mind into my old self and attempt to make art through pure intuition?
As a young girl someone dear to me discouraged my desire to become an artist, I would get yelled at for "making a mess" and be told that what I make is trash. In a way this is an experimentation of my subconscious young self releasing her desire to freely make a mess as she pleases.
