Some portfolios I retrieved from a family home have been sitting in my art storage room at home since I’ve been back after Katrina. I knew from past browsing that the majority of my kid art perished. Last week I decided to see what actually survived.
Most of the work is from college, but there are some pieces from middle school and high school. Of course some pieces suffered because of age or what was in the air. Rubber cement used on the back bled through the
paper, too.
What surprised me was that some artwork just didn’t look as good as I remember. Sometimes I created a piece and I was amazed by it. Often these pieces were breakthroughs for me. And so I guess I’ve progressed to another level. That’s the silver lining.
