Mindscapes - Adolescent Expression | [Artwork] Family and Future
Name of the Painting: Family and Future
(accompanying text submitted by the child’s parent)
This drawing was awarded in a contest about the future. In it, Bernardo represents himself as an adult with two children. He is a talented boy with many skills and dreams, and he often talks about traveling and different future possibilities. However, when asked to draw what he wants most for his future, he chose to represent himself as a father. I believe this shows his ability to think about the future and the importance that family has for him, which is also an important aspect of his mental health.
