In my childhood, I filled countless journals with my short stories and thoughts on life. But as a young adult I went through some life-changing events, and I found myself drowning in my attempts to sort it out on the page. Art gave me a new way to express myself. I discovered that I could speak more clearly in charcoal and paint as the marks were not bound by language. I was able to process my experiences, finding beauty in the chaos without needing to understand it all. Many years later, I still find freedom and joy in creating art. I love the playfulness of watercolor and ink wash, seeing how they move and create seemingly on their own, and then I can follow where the story goes on the paper. I find the finished piece often expresses something I didn’t even know was in me. All images copyright Mackenzie Schmidt.
