Today’s another story time! I’ll share with you my relationship with art, drawing and painting from the time I was a KID! And all the way up til now.

I share in this episode some things I never shared before, so I really hope you enjoy it! 😊🙏🏼

Let’s Start at Age 5

First memory – Drawing at my grandparents porch, Dr. Seuss book on one side and my piece of paper on the other. I vividly remember drawing the fuzzy elephant as I saw it.

Elementary School – Taking part in an extra-curricular COMICS class! I remember drawing all sorts of characters, and being very impressed with the older kids’ results.

Turns out me and comics go wayyy more back than I even remembered.

Junior High – Barely made any art

High School – Discovered anime (mainly Naruto and Death Note) and started drawing random anime characters.

I was actually able to dig up these drawings I did, never seen before…!

Sasuke from Naruto – If you remember I did draw another version of this one recently. But this one is from around 2005
A character from another manga I read at the time called Yankee Kun to Megane Chan

I spontaneously decided to look for old drawings in my old emails, and was so happy to find that I did have a few!

Military Service – During this time I was barely doing any art. Only in the last 6 months of my service I started moving towards that direction again.

I Could End up NOT an Artist!

That’s the craziest part here.

If you look carefully, you’ll see that from the time I was around 5 years old, all the way up to the military service, over more than a decade – all there was was a steady decline in how much I was creating.

Had the circumstances been even just a little different here and there, I might have not become an artist at all.

In the episode itself I got into a longer rant about the education system, parents and so on haha.

But luckily – I have become one! 😁

My Future Part in the Art World

I also discuss my future part in the art world, and how I want to go beyond my current niche and play a more major role.

More on that in the future, as it unfolds.

Thank YOU So Much

I’m very grateful for you, the listener / viewer / follower. I couldn’t have done any of the things I have without you.

I really appreciate that, and look forward to being able to share and help more and more in the future 😊🙏🏼
