Hi all,
I'm always reading your paper. I'm currently on remand, applying for bail in two days. Currently in Wello for two days, but have been in Broken Hill women’s wing for two weeks before Wello.
I've decided to send in a picture of this sketch I have done. It's called ‘the bear on my back’. It’s the heavy weight of guilt and also the scary parts of myself I keep secured to me when I'm in protective mode. I may look scary but I'm cuddly and feminine generally at most times.
Thank you!
Kelly

When I paint, I'm not in prison anymore. I'm lost for hours in my artwork.
I’d think there are a lot of inmates looking for someone to talk to, for some people it might help with the healing process.
Since having my first ever grandson nearly 3 years ago now, it’s made me realise that I not only want to change, but I need to do it not only for myself but for my family.
My name is Jean. I am a wiry spitfire, 65 years young, and incarcerated for the past 24 years with a L.W.O.P. (Life Without Parole) sentence.
