Description
This artifact was given to Claudia Usubillaga by a friend. It is a painting with an inspirational quote and colorful, playful images of clouds and a hot air balloon.
The submitter provided the following information about the artifact's history: "I acquired this artifact from my friend about two years ago. I really like this painting because of the soft pastel colors that it has. I also like the quote and the drawings that come with it. “Oh the places you will go” I like how it has balloons flying around and how the little guy in the painting is flying attached to the balloon. Seeing the drawing reminds me of when I was a little kid because I used to be obsessed with balloons. The painting also reminds me to be my own balloon. The quote is very inspirational because when I read it I remind myself that I can go any where I want to if I believe in myself and if I become my own balloon, like the one the guy is flying with in the painting."
