In a way this helped me throughout the years since I kept making crafts for any occasions like birthdays and so on. I found myself later applying for art society…

As I sat and watched the chickadees flit from branch to branch with extreme precision, cocking their heads from side to side in search of food, something inside me made me want to get to know them better. This single encounter was what sparked my deep interest in birds.…

    But on-and-on my interest towards drawing increased more and up to that level that I used to be awake late at night engaged by the process of creating a new masterpiece (at least for me).
