Sep 28 - Born ArtistMaggie DeversShe created her own works for an exhibition tonight Unaware of traditional artistic practicesOnly sweet, innocent bliss of the raw and ragged.
She had cut up her stuffie and used the skin fabricTo fashion a heart emblazoned with maker, tape and assorted gems—If Tracey Emin were six and slightly more destructive.
Another was on paperAnd the third a juxtaposition of disparate mediaAll with the unifying theme:Portrait of a Girl with a Dog.
Later they curl up on my bellyAs I recline watching videos ofThe Artist at Two—Smashing all the colors of play-dough together,Her stuffed dog tucked under her armAt ease in creation, another day to play.
