From You

carrelcrawford1“Two Inner Senses”

(watercolor, charcoal, crayon, pastel on paper)

This piece is a collaboration between Yosi, a 3 year old, and her mom.

As a non producing artist, I constantly struggle with being able to produce art, as if I can’t dig deep enough, or let go long enough to put something down.

Watching Yosi draw, I am inspired by her expressive strokes, fearless choice of color and care-free motivation.

This piece illustrates my personal inner struggle between holding on and letting go, being fearful and fearless and making nothing or something.
