Take a Word - Zetti

I am honored to be the "poster girl" for this week's challenge.   I present Mary, a zetti kind of girl who didn't like school much.   She was too preoccupied with boys to be bothered with numbers and spelling ..... and her work showed it!
Have fun with Zetti, even if you don't really "get it".  I think we are all in the same boat.

The quote is very pertinent to what we are all doing on our blogs which is exposing OUR artwork to the world.  Well, at least to the world of Blogland!  Great artists expose themselves in self-portraits which show warts and all.  Actors expose themselves on the stage or in movies.  There must be many ways of tackling this abstract theme.  Just remember, anything goes!!
