I keep wondering how your visual art talent as a child didn't make it to your adulthood ... Nice Blend of colours ... You'll probably be a great painter if your visual art talent survived ...
I think I’m alright with aesthetics and I can collage and photograph and put words together. But drawing, painting, and penmanship not so much... I appreciate the confidence though!
Oh my god, these are so brilliant and angsty. I hope that you're ok and not sad all the time - if this makes you laugh now, I'm assuming it's ok for us to laugh too? These are amazing. Is that a worm at the top?
This is tangential, but I will never forget when my cousin was 6 or 8, he left his reindeer stuffed animal with an arrow planted in his chest and a note attached: "Good-bye cruel world, signed Rudolph" I still die every time I think about that. Kids are the best.
Oh no it’s totally funny! Though I probably would have been slightly concerned if I was my parents and they noticed their 8 year old daughter making weird depression art. But that thing with your cousin is legitimately hilarious and I just snorted when I read that. I hope someone has a picture!
oh how I wish I had a picture of that! "Weird depression art" - I think you have yourself a genre :-)
I am so happy that the bookworm is rushing to your aid and your tears are pink. You'll turn out ok, kiddo!
I think this post has a theme, but I can't quite put my finger on it
Beats me. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
awww little Mallory was sad. This is pretty touching.

I don't have anything like this left...
I still have my diary during my "dark" days. I'm afraid to open and read them.
I went through and typed all mine up a couple years ago and it was a deeply emotional but illuminating experience. I definitely broke down a few times but it had this odd effect of making me much more comfortable with who I am and how I got here. I'd recommend it.
Is that an orange spermatozoa asking for help?
