Sunday 29th

Take a quiet day again and draw for a bit….

Sat in sun with some paper, a pen and some Korn on CD……

Themes arround blame intreage me. At school my 'deficiencies' steming from my un-diagnosed 'dyslexia' (well it was called 'stupidity' and i was called 'retarded' then) was always my fault. If i spoke well in the class i was always told i was 'lazy' for not handing written work of the same quality in. If i wrote my name wrong or spelt something wrong on a drawing, i had always 'spoilt' the 'work'. One teacher, One incident at 11 stopped me from drawing for 10 years, 'what you learn at school stays with you?' after all they are adults and 'in charge'……. they must be right? Normal fault- always mine?

common amongst dyslexics is low-confidence steming from 'school experience' with teachers. Reverse fault- their fault?

'We dont need no 'edukashon', they do……….'
