What a great keepsake and history for yourself that would make. I entered an art contest in 8th grade. I didn't think I had talent but my art teacher did. She really encouraged me. I did a weaving and made a bag out of my weaving. So it was kind of a textile thing. But it was a mixed media art category and I won first place. I had forgotten about that until you shared. It is funny what things we did as kids that were the infancy of our talents.

That's cool that your Mom saved them for you. I save a lot of my kids' stuff, but my Mom didn't save any of mine. I was actually just going through a little portfolio I have of my artwork from my high school, college and grad school days, and discovered, sadly, that there was water damage on the edges of most of them. My daughter is in a new phase of drawing like crazy and I will definitely save some for her. It's neat to see that you liked bright colors and abstract images back then.
