I am following Nature without being able to grasp her, I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers.

In fact, I thought my calling was to be a painter.

I tried to be a house painter, but I couldn't stand all that paint all over me.

Painting is a hobby for me.

I found I have to stay painting.

I wanted to be a painter.

I was too practical to want to be a painter.

I paint flowers so they will not die.

Painting is not what my life is about, but it is very important to me, and I am very lucky to be able to give some time to it.
