During this stressful period of SATs, ACTs, APs, and all of the other grades high school students must worry about, it is soothing to recall a time when we used to be carefree. These paintings depict teenagers reverting back to childhood bliss, playing with toys and using their imagination and sense of wonder instead of working on pages or math problems. The medium of watercolor portrays a dream-like atmosphere, and the light colors show the levity of mood of each individual.
