The last time I'd painted, I was 16 years old at summer camp, and I didn't want to teach myself how to paint by copying the old masters or stretching a canvas and practicing over and over again on that surface, because that's not what this project was about for me.
我最后一次画画， 是我十六岁的时候在夏利营里， 我并不想要通过复制那些画家 或者在一块画布上 反复的练习 来教自己如何画画， 因为这并不是我想要的。
