I guess...though if you turned out food that looked and tasted like it was made by a 5 year old it wouldn't work either.

I'd argue that you could recall a project you did at a young age and redo it as an accomplished adult....but who knows if that would work.

Yeah, the comparison isn't very good. I do think the materials threw them. I was a bit pissed that Miles just shut down, did a repeat piece and flew under the radar. I don't know why such an abstract piece worked for the challenge. Perhaps only because the others had such trouble.

On it's face, "do art regarding your experiences when <blank>" shouldn't be too tall an order, especially on a topic as broad as growing up.
