(Meine Kunst: Abstrakt, Landschaft, Porträt, Sonstige Stilrichtung) I always have a passion at art eversince i was a child. I used to draw anything just to waste my time on the backpages of my school notebook, on scratch papers, cardboards, and even on the walls. I even used to outline some drawings or paintings on old books or other people´s (like my uncle´s) artworks. I also remember making paper barbie dolls for my classmates and they really loved it. I had joined some art competitions in elementary & high school, and i always loved that, because then i would be excused in the class.Most of all i really enjoyed getting awards even when they were sometimes just consolation prizes or certificate of appreciation, and then bring them home to my parents. Of course, meeting other artists & going to other places were also interesting. When i was in the university, i got involved more on technical drawing. But I also learned some techniques on how to use different medium on painting (but not like in Fine Arts subjects). After graduating, my hobby was long forgotten. Then i got fascinated by one painter that i saw on tv. He was doing great & fast even without thinking about it. I was really impressed. And then i received for the first time an acrylic painting set with canvas from my beloved husband. Well, we both didn´t believe that i could paint again. But since it´s the first painting set i ever received, i started using it and tried to follow the instructions of this artist on tv. Well now, since January just last year, i´m producing my own acrylic & oil paintings on canvas. Thanks to my friends and acquaintances who patronize my paintings. Because they are giving me the privilege and encouragement to do something that i have a passion at.
