Oh, how heartbreaking that your experience as a painter was so shortlived and so disappointing! Who knows, maybe it just wasn't the right time in your life, or it wasn't the right type of painting for your talents. I can actually really relate to this. I studied art, drawing, painting and graphic design for years, and it just always seemed like I was impersonating an artist instead of becoming one. Finally I shifted over to writing, and immediately I felt that I had found my medium for creative expression!
That is absolutely true. Writing makes me feel like I’m pouring the words out of my brain, instead of pouring the paint to the canvas.
Studying art must be hard. Do you have some pieces that you keep even today? 🤗🤗
