Wow! This is a great piece.
I could relate to your story. It may be easy to start but takes a little bit longer to yield, don't relent.
You've been in love with paintings since you were a boy, and it's so amazing you finally got to do what you had so much passion for. Don't give up, you'd soon be there. Nice story
I think I already gave up. And focused on writing as a hobby to be honest 🤗🤗
