started drawing at age 12, however don't think I wanted to be an artist, was just born an artist. But, at age 22, I begain to believe that I was an Artist.

Genetically born with the DNA of artists parents plus exposure to art galleries and older artist family friends at 2. Started painting with oils at 9 and held first art exhibition at 11. Never stopped the journey since, even when working as a cadet journalist, and thereafter.

I was a scientist and have never been done anything about art untill I retired at the age of 59. I discovered a new hobby. I recently graduated after 8 years in art school in painting. And yes, I am an artist. Composition design is more important than manual work

I feel that I was born an artist since I have always loved it.

When I was very young I would draw and doodle when I was in the mood. I had never thought about being a professional painter/artist. I didn't draw or paint anything for several years. My life had just got to busy, couldn't find the time. It was when I was in my 40's that I found that the passion of painting again came to me. Now I make time to allow myself to enjoy, and create beautiful, expressive artwork.

Dear friends of the world, I had started drawing at age 5, however don't think I wanted to be an artist, was just born an artist. But, at age 10-12, When some friends and relatives had started to say, 'Oh artist boy...!', then I feel that yes, 'i am an artist boy'.
