# About me

Well, I loved drawing and painting from a young age, about six years old. I took lessons for a year or so when I was in eight or nine, but then I got tired of it and stopped, for a few years. I still liked drawing and painting, but lessons made me see it as a chore rather than a hobby so I didn't like it as much as I used to. Then when I was about 12 I started taking lessons again, and now I'm focusing more on painting than drawing.

Now, I still draw, not as much as I used to...Mostly because if my parents catch me I get in trouble...So it's like something I do when they aren't around.

I am also a bit sensitive, so I can be pretty shy about displaying my art, especially because being an artist, there was a lot of judgment in the past that hurt me and sometimes made me want to give up and try something else. But that's over now, and today, things are a lot better :)

I really hope I can incorporate drawing and painting into my future, whatever that may be, because it's something I really enjoy doing and it has honestly helped me a lot through difficult times. It helps me express myself without words, because sometimes that's a little hard.

It's always fascinating to me to view art works as it gives me a glimpse into another person's perspective, like a window into their world. So, until then, this is me :)
