And I started with this: I have not painted at all my childhood. In fact, I never painted. But I helped my father who was a house painter and decorative painter. He made stage sets, he made glass paintings, he made everything.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I tried painting for a short time and realized that I was not a child prodigy at painting.
I don't paint. I am a hobbyist photographer, so I relate to the visual arts that way, but I'm not a painter.
In my previous life, I was an artist. I still paint. I love art.
When I was growing up, I wanted to be a house painter like my father, but I was always screwing up when I went to work with him. I had a talent for knocking over paint and painting myself into corners. I also realized fairly quickly that painting bored me.
I began drawing as a very young child and had a grandfather who experimented with photography, so those things constituted my first exposure to art.
I was always painting when I was a kid. But then when I handled a camera when I was 17, that was it for me. I loved photography. I would work 4 or 5 hours a day. It was like a calling.
I grew up thinking art was pictures until I got into music and found I was an artist and didn't paint.
I've been painting and making things since I was little.
I've always been a creative person, and I'd always wanted to paint, so I went to art school and began painting and sculpting.
I started painting when I was in high school.
