Ever since I was a child, I have been fiddling around with drawing… It wasn’t the normal drawings that young children make, such as stick figures of their parents or dogs.
I would create entire scenes of people in action, but when I was only four, I drew a near perfect depiction of my father laboring at his desk, which had my parents oohing plus ahing for months.
They thought I was the next Vincent van Gogh. I’m not sure if I wanted to be a Vincent van Gogh, although I did not recognize that I wanted to draw plus paint when I got older; After graduating from school, I heard about artisan lofts for rent. I was rather curious what the difference was between an artisan condo plus a regular condo apartment. I soon found out that an artisan condo was a condo that was meant for people with special skills. I found a single entire building that had cheaper rents than normal, plus an artist rented every condo room. At that point, I couldn’t see myself living anywhere however in an artisan loft. When a single condo came up for rent, I knew that was going to be where I was going to live. The condo gave me the ability to paint, live plus share with other artist. Within the first year of living in the artisan condo rental, a young guy came to visit a single of my neighbors, plus his father owned an art studio. When I saw an artisan condo for rent, I never thought I would have my showing within a year.
