“I remember the first moment I made a mark, the excitement and power; I was only a small child (Grade One). Man has made his mark as far back as the caveman, putting his handprint on the cave wall: the wild animals and the hunt.
These symbols are affirmations, showing what exists (before one’s eyes) and putting the information in a communicative message”. Kerrie Stratford wrote.
